There is a dupe on this so the main service can keep to time & not leave passengers behind, the dupe is usually a decker as well

That's what 4191 is at Manor Lane for.

2799 is on the 10/10A today so it's still clinging on.

I hope it is here to stay for a long time, how old is it?

Are they the wrights with the old style livery? I saw one before, they sound dead. Why is there a cadet at the back of the depot facing away from the gates? and where has the B10 driver trainer gone? And why is there a dead dennis MPD there too?


RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Chester Depot - T42 PVM - 13/12/2017 19:40

The dead dart is 852

2490 is still in old livery.
2492 is in inturburban livery.
Both are wright bodied VDL cadets and do sound a bit rough as they have had an hard life at st helens for the size of the engines that are in them.

What engines do they have?
