Surely SN16 OPG will be 26053 and not 26052 as I would of thought if they are in succession it would be more like SN16 OPD : 26050 SN16 OPE : 26051 SN16 OPF : 26052 SN16 OPG : 25053

Thanks for that, I thought 'OPE' wouldn't be used....and 'OPC' is the last one for the Winchester park & ride (26041-26049). https://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/ |

It means I can go to Chester just a few weeks later and still have plenty of daylight to see a wider area. So next March is possible now, unless I find out about some distinctive new buses due soon after that. |

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Arriva haven't put in their orders yet, them or any of the independents around Chester (Gha, Townlynx etc) might well get new buses. |
