RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot - Depotosw - 24/10/2016 09:10

The first Sunday of the 2 hourly change on the 5 Wrexham to Llangollen provided the following:

Sapphire 4404 J400 ABW, 10:00 ex Wrexham and 11:15 ex Llangollen
Enviro200, 2147 DK15 EHB, 12:00, 14:00 ex Wrexham and 13:15 and 15:15 ex Llangollen

Didn't see later workings but assumed 2147 stayed on it. 4404 went onto route 1 after working the 5 so assume this is a booked turn now. The sampled a few 5 workings between Wrexham and Acrefair and loading very good but comments were heard on the first inbound to Wrexham from some passengers where an earlier working that gets in 10:00 or before would be useful.

As a side note 2802 Y366 UON is now in service here and 2465 Y465 KNF appears to have moved on. 2463 Y463 KNF looked very dead in the compound.

It was gone by 13:00 when I returned and a sighting from a friend in Rhyl said it was noted back in Rhyl 15:30. Any ideas what it was doing?

X51?

Hi, did consider the X51 but it doesn't have any Sunday operation and checking the new timetable to come into play in a few weeks doesn't feature in the changes either.

Thanks

Interesting move happening today sadly we will see the end of the Dart in Wrexham as 0849/0852 Y549UJC/Y552UJC will move to Chester and Wrexham will receive Versa's 0998/0999 CX11EVG/CX11EVH.

Looks like the swap has taken place. Just seen a Versa whizzing down my road on the 3 to Wrexham.

Just seen an MPD on the D26 so there's still one hanging on in there..

CX11EVG (0998) was on Service 12 earlier very surprising before being placed onto the 7/32 Diagram with Y549UJC (0849) still holding onto its life here at Wrexham.

Also noted J300ABW (4403) was very surprisingly operating a 11 to Minera.

998 was also on a 7 on Saturday. Over in Chester also on Saturday 852 was operating on route 12 to Connahs Quay.

2801 been VOR a few weeks now too it appears.
