What I meant was that by intoducing a route to Chester, a route primarily operated by Arriva, then inevitably there will be competition and a way for Stagecoach to get more presence in the area.

Not everyone is a bus Enthusiast. They will see a cheaper ticket to the same destination, and use this bus.

And yes, the Ecocity's are a decent bus, but with the added USB ports on the mmc's, there's the appeal to the younger generation/students.

Understood, but my point was that Stagecoach are not necessarily going to win a great deal of Chester bound passengers from Arriva due to people already holding Arriva passes from already using buses from elsewhere in the borough, of course something Stagecoach can't compete with.
