10799 has just left Liverpool on the 472!

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Lovely buses could this in the long term lead to the X8 being double deck in the future , it also depends on whether any passengers that are gained are kept after the work is finished .

Gold vehicles are starting to get on to the 41/42 which was to be expected .

I had a feeling you would go for it

Just had 10806 on the X8 full route, freezing all the way but at least it was quick

Without wishing to sound like a broken (vinyl) record, if Stagecoach and Arriva wish to take this opportunity to entice motorists out of their cars during the Wirral line shutdown they must ensure that these buses are warm and comfortable. Wi-Fi and USB points is all well and good, but if ice is forming on the windows then it ain't going to succeed. Even the most basic model of car has effective heating these days. I remember reading that theses MMC's can guarantee an ambient temperature of 21c irrespective of external conditions. Clearly, this is not true.
