RE: Arriva North West - Chester Depot - T42 PVM - 30/01/2013 18:39

on monday i noticed 7533 on the 3 to mold, i hear that is stuck on the 10 most of the time so i ask is this a rare thing or does it always get on that route now?

Well it not been on the 10 for a little while now but it don't get out on the 10, it has little choice but to go on either the 3 or the 4 or X55. Never goes on X44's.

Well that would be something if Chester depot did get Bangor depots remaining B7's. The trouble is no route needs them at Chester unless like I said earlier in the week, could Chester depot be doing some number 2's.

Chester need them, as tachograph fitted vehicles, to cover rails though, as mentioned earlier in this thread. Not necessarily a case of routes 'needing' them.

I know it will never happen but i would love the B7's to come to st helens to replace the darts etc.
Just me in my dream world and having crazy thoughts.

LOL! They are good buses expecially 2799 but i doubt bangor depot would ever give that one away! Just a thought when/if the pulsars do come to bangor!

Who knows...... Big Grin

The B7s at Bangor have been earmarked for transfer upon the arrival of Pulsars from Wrexham for a long while. It was originally planned for the end of last year prior to the decision to refurb the Enviro400s for the 1 hence the delay in the swap. They'll all be off unless things have changed very recently.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if these B7s end up at St Helens sometime as St Helens seems to have had every other vehicle type allocated to the depot in the past just before there withdrawn from service
