Any idea why these buses seem to be coming back to Wales, was the loans to Merseyside part of a temporary measure?

I think they were just needed in Merseyside after service reductions before, but service is going back up in Wales on Monday hence all the extra buses being drafted in

They're replacements for the Enviro400s which transferred out

Wow, DK55 Cadets in 2017, let most of them leave, now they are bringing them back

Do we know why? Seems a bit strange for them to go through the hassle to increase it for only a few days.

Believe it's down to staffing issues. Chester depot are currently operating the 11D college service to Deeside.

Ahh, fair enough. Interesting route to cut though. I know it's a lot of staff overall but it's quite a busy route. If only the 10A still ran to Holywell as the town has a decent amount of passengers which may not travel due to the reduced convenience or will be pushed into 1 bus per hour.

I believe 2573 may have also gone out however it wasn't showing on the tracker.
