It's not SORN from a DVLA check, either tracking as another bus or currently marked down as NFS, tax is due on May 1st.

Also, Is Hawarden pretty much Chester depot? The only depot marked down on the BusTimes page that shows up with Chester is the spare ticket machine.

Can't be SORN as the Chester Cadets are not getting Withdrawn anytime soon.

It's still in the depot. Just hasn't been out. Was on loan somewhere else and got returned with a fault.

Not entirely sure it went out somewhere as it was last seen in service on a 2300 4S to Mold on the 25th February, think it mightve had a fault on a test run or returning to the depot.

I rode 2664 earlier today, gotta admit it is one of the loudest buses i have rode on, engine sounds nice tho, 5/10 rating.

Deckers, are back on the Mold 4's like they used to 2 years ago when the X4 was a E Port service.

No, Arriva did operate the X4 into The Port as well for a time as a Commercial Expansion.

From October 28th 2018 - April 28th 2019 was the time the X4 became a port service.
