Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

[R879 HRF]

RE: First Chester & Wirral
I dont think deckers are needed on most 1's - although during peak time and when people are heading home from Cheshire oaks in the evenings, the buses can be busy with standees, they arnt overcrouded and a full seated load with 5 or so standees still doesnt justify decker use as that would ultimatley result in empty seats - Operators prefer running a full single deck rather than a 2/3 full doubledeck!

Perhaps on a Sunday though on certain journeys when the times are less frequent- and certain journeys from cheshire oaks through the week during the lead up to christmas when it tends to be busier, deckers should be used!
