Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Timekeeping on both the 2 & X2 is becoming a bit of an issue. The X2 is largely down to the roadworks in the Runcorn area, which has a knock on effect throughout the day. The 2 seems to struggle to maintain timings as well & one whistled past me at Backford today as 'Out of Service', presumably to make up some of the 25 minute defecit!

The idea of routing the 2 around Bebington certainly seems to have caught on as there are quite a few travelling on the new parts of the route. However, it's notable that quite a few people (myself included) who sometimes used the 2 through from Liverpool are now shunning it completely on the northern part of the route, as it's normally quicker to get a 1 or X8.
