It is on loan to cover for 5008 Gas bus that while at the Body Shop

2601 Commander and two of the Enviro 200’s These three loan buses cannot go over the bridge so they have been put on stuff this side of the water.

Does this appear tacking as 2602 for some reason? Cause that fleet number is shown on ANW bustimes working on the X30.

What is the reason for the Commander and Enviro200s not being allowed over the bridge?

What is the situation with the 200 since Arriva have cancelled it from January. Will it be a new operator, merged into the existing network or cancelled altogether?

Runcorn have won back the 200 route too so that will actually stay and not reduce the PVR by 2 in January Been told The X30 will also start observing the sci-tech site in both directions from the end of January.

Thank goodness for that and long overdue, especially given that there are quite a few people who already use the X30 plus a short walk to get there. It was amazing when a few years ago there was an extension of the 329 funded to run from all the way from Warrington to Daresbury Sci-Tech Park when the X30 was already running so close. I just hope the X30 will be able to keep to time given that it will take a few minutes extra to divert there assumedly all day in both directions(?) I wonder if Warrington will also follow suit and divert more 62s into Daresbury Sci-Tech Park.
