The Blacon Pointer group is run by ABW, and they are entirely in England.

82 northwich route is run by chester both diagrams, ive not heard about x30 being run from chester though, is x30 making money after the farcical way 21 was withdrawn, i didnt realise stagecoach were doing so much damage with hourly x2

The X30 saga got mentioned to me by staff from runcorn depot saying that its moving over to chester and would become decker operated so just have to wait and see what happens.

And the depot is not even in Chester,
This also means that in over 70 years Runcorn will not be operating into Chester,

Let's see how long it will be before they do what Crosville Chester depot it with a DD going down the Busway

Here are some gas bus facts[attachment=385]

So is x1 still sapphire now its gas bus operated or will x30 be sapphire now with the suitable buses on this route, i remember when x11 ran between chester & liverpool, it was swapped from birkenhead to chester depot as it was cheaper to run due to wales division on less pay than merseyside

What are the X1 using the gas buses instead of?? The new ones for the 82A or old ones intended for 79C
