Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot

RE: Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot
To be honest, Eco Citys on the 82a/79c has been a daily occurrence for the last 12 months now, with Eco Citys being allocated on the 82a of an evening for even longer. Due to all this it's also a daily occurrence to have a cadet on 1/2 or 21/X30, perhaps not daily on the 21/X30 but its still very frequent. In regards to swapping 3137 onto the X1, it's too much of a headache, first of all it would need to be on either the 82A, X30 or 21 as these are the only routes that work back into the depot. A spare cadet or eco city would then have to be found in the depot, which can sometimes be quite a hard task due to there being very little availability wise. Then it would need to be drove up to Halton Lea where the drivers swap and require passengers to transfer over on the busway. Understandable if it was getting swapped on for a fault or breakdown.
