Are the XBU's DDA? if so they could be sold on to a smaller independent who could put these to good use, plus i would of thought selling Buses on would be more Profitable than Scrapping them For Blog Posts Containing all the latest in the local Bus Scene The 2002 Bus Blog Subscribe to my Youtube Channel, Updated regularly!

I seem mostly out on Liverpool and Chester route sometime another route. Recently 961 on X8 route, I'm really missed to ride and wish ride on M53 to see what is like. Never mind. |

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Im surprised it survived in that Open Golf wrap for so long after the tournament , I would have thought the R&A would have wanted it removing immediately after the event . The R&A and Stagecoach do seem to have a good relationship though with each other as they seem to be the Park&Ride contractor for all the opens in recent times around the country. |
