That was a fantastic bus at Bootle upon its transfer into the reserve fleet! I'll definitely catch-up with it if it enters service at Chester!
Probably go onto the 10's. Cannot find a picture of T321 PNB on flickr. Is it in interurban.
It has a unique registration - T821 PNB! Here is one of my photos of it in service at Bootle:

Here is another of it in Speke in the reserve fleet:

Thanks very much, no doubt I'll be sampling that very soon. Not been on any of this batch before.

I managed to find Plaxton Pointer 2 T821 PNB (2321) on Monday (albeit after a long wait around cold Chester) on the 3:

If only I'd waited at Chester Railway Station for a bit longer as I would have been able to have a short ride on it between there and the town centre. Instead, I rode on X257 HJA (2257) on that short journey and, in that short journey, I can safely say that it was sluggish and it featured an awful ride-quality, along with it being scruffy inside and out... Hopefully, I will get around to sampling more of Chester's Darts before their time is up - which may not be too far away...

2797 is on rail replacement duties today!

3145 CX12 DTK surprisingly made it out on 10's today, had a ride, certainly shocked me when I seen it that was for sure and I did not have my camera either Sad. Meanwhile the BlaconPointer Pulsar 2's have had the Stagecoach logos applied and don't half look shoddy (letters not in a straight line)

RE: Arriva North West - Chester Depot - Arriva3137 - 11/06/2013 18:01

What does 3141 get used on when its not on the blacons and either 2796/7/8 are on the X2?
