I agree. A half hourly fast service between Chester & Ellesmere Port is surely profitable. There are quite a few people (myself included) who will wait for an X2. The market is there, it's just that Arriva aren't getting the cash sales on their diagram. It doesn't help that the Arriva diagram seems to be based on one shift, with no early service from Chester & a lack of a 17:57 from Ellesmere Port (a service I would use frequently if it existed).

Im hoping that Stagecoach will operate the service half hourly, but we will have to wait and see.
