I think the Park and Ride Enviro200s look smart personally. Looking forward to sampling one when they enter service

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
You have to think with Park and Ride services that they need to have superior interiors than a normal service bus .

How many times have you had car drivers say they wouldn't be seen dead in a bus as they have a feeling that buses are the lowest of the low , even heard car drivers say they would use a train over a bus any day.

Stagecoach Gold should be the standard for all Park and Ride's that Stagecoach operate.

They've got tinted windows, leather seats, air con, USB ports, Wifi and RTPI fitted. What more do you want?!

Oh... is that things like announcing the next stop? If so it seems a bit pointless on a P&R where there are 2/3 stops at most.

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Im led to believe that the Chester zoo P&R will stop at The Countess of Chester . Its a particulary good use of keeping people from parking on The Countess of Chester site , which like most hospital's suffer from excessive parking problems , just look at Arrowe Park Hospital as a case in point .

That maybe the case for Chester , but I was generalising with all the other stagecoach park and ride operations .

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Oh right ok

Random question but are X265 USH and Y961/962 XBU still in service here? Or have they been sold or scrapped?
