Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots
These route changes smack very much of a cost cutting exercise, and certainly aren’t for the benefit of paying customers. In my experience, quite a few people use the X8 to/from Ellesmere Port rail station (I did myself before I moved house).

The only reason I can see for re-routing the service via Overpool is purely to replace the 2. It won’t pick up that many people as the rail service will always be quicker to Liverpool. One up-side is that at least that part of the Ellesmere Port area will (at last), get a Sunday service that runs to somewhere useful.
