Sorry but the Pulsars need to go on the x30 because of heavy loading,

How would you like it having to stand from Frodsham and Helsby to Chester or evan be left at Dunham Hill and Mickel Trafford because of the bus been full,

Lets face it when the 82A went to 2 buses from 3 it was Cadets that moved to Speke while there were still older darts in the depot,

The 79c turning short at Queens Sq meant to more Cadets move and not the Darts

Same when the new Pulsar came they replaced other Pulsars

Oh yes by all means, put them on the X30, however in my experience, I often wonder why they go in the bus way circulars, and I often struggle to see why they are needed on the 110 any more than they are needed on the 79C.
I wouldn't like it, just like I don't like having to stand from Liverpool to Netherley when I very often do. Also wasn't to keen on being left behind by 79Cs and 82As when trying to get home from school last year (Pulsars passed me with standing loads before any school
kids even boarded).
I'm now becoming a semi-regular user of the 110 between Widnes and Warrington, often at peaks times as well, when loadings are nothing that a Cadet cannot cope with.
I have no problem with the buses Runcorn have, however allocations do leave something to be desired sometimes. While I understand it is not the depots decision what stays and what goes, they could at least try to make the big boys in their nice offices and suits understand what buses should be allocated to the depot to best meet the needs of the passengers and the demands of the service.
