Not particularly likely I'm afraid as the Merseytravel head of QPs when interviewed in one of the trade mags last year stated that they accept that the majority of public transport users between Chester and Liverpool make their way by train, hence the rather convoluted routes of the 1 and 2.

Either Arriva or Stagecoach are unlikely to introduce what you suggest, as it would probably generate most of its revenue by abstracting it from the current 1 and 2. I would suggest the demise of what was the X8 in favour of the original 1 during First's stewardship should give an indication of the market for bus travel between Chester and Liverpool.
