Why would Stagecoach need to bring in newer deckers to continue running the school services? the S regs are good for another year and I imagine the other 2 are just spares.

Ridership doesn't justify full sized single deckers?

Have you ever been on the 1/2/41/42 !? Generally every seat is taken, although standing room is available. Less seats = more people having to stand = bus services less attractive.

I was on the Arriva 2 earlier and from Little Sutton to Hope Farm (via Ellesmere Port), the bus was full and standing, and this was only around 12:30pm.

If a Dart appears on the 1, there will be carnage, especially nearer Christmas/School Holidays at Cheshire Oaks.
