Not very familiar with these areas, hoping that the First vehicle fleets don't have many modern vehicles (post 2001) so S/C will have to replace all of them in the next few years.
Would be nice if First transferred out any modern vehicles and moved in old vehicles before the takeover.

The vast majority of the Chester & Wirral is made up of mainly R, S, T registered vehicles a few X then 53 onwards so it's not as if they've got the modernest fleet around, compared to the likes of Stagecoach and Arriva.

Not sure about Chester but newest vehicles at Birkenhead are on 05 plates[& that includes the recent transfer of Geminis from Yorkshire], & a few vehicles from BH regally went in service without working blinds just a paper sticker, although i've seen BH vehicles in service with working blinds recently.
