RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Chester Depot
Does anyone know the condition of Y549UJC and why it is still in service after all of the other darts have gone?

Seemed in decent condition last time I had it, probably still here because either a) no major fault has occured with it to make it worth withdrawing b) the MOT is still yet to run out or c) some other reason

Definitely the best MPD out of the four remaining in ABW

Is the chassis rotten? Just I heard that darts like to go rusty underneath.

Runcorn are still operating it according to form due to staffing issues at chester.
The buses operating it will have "ON HIRE TO ARRIVA CYMRU".

There are lots of reasons why it is on hire to Runcorn. It will be there until at least Christmas when it will all be reviewed.

J999 is sitting at the back of the chester depot next to a dennis dart looking very forlorn, I think it may have been withdrawn.

It could be there for storage as it's supposed to be being converted to a trainer. Being on the withdrawn line probably just means it's withdrawn from service.
