Ellesmere Port would make more sense as there's a lot of brown sites available where as Chester isn't so much I cannot personally see the operations being moved to Rockferry as that would reduced any profit made by Chester

Sorry, I didnt explain very well. You were talking about dead millage so I was comparing to Preston running the X2 and they run light to Liverpool daily. I dont know exactly where the depot is but they used to keep the open toppers there during the winter. EPort would make more sense, I agree but with them dropping some routes which make less profit, it should increase slightly.

They are somewhat based there. They have land there and they are meant to keep the open toppers there in the winter. I dont know exactly where the land is but I know they have land there. That is where P+Rs are meant to be moving to there.
