Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
The question that needs to be asked and discussed really is can the cost of the fuel for the buses be justified in a 1 way run then light back to Liverpool without passengers.

If the overnight service is to be successful then really it needs service runs back to Liverpool as well as out to chester otherwise there is no point and no justification to run it overnight.

I once worked for Radonneur which was part of wirral community transport and there was once talk of running the 177 which I used to drive on sn overnight basis but the cost could not be justified because as the depot where I operated from had no on site fuel pump the vehicles had to be fuelled at ordinary service stations. Ok a little digression I know but the point is there needs to be a decent amount of takings to make enough money just to cover the fuel and the drivers wages or there is no reason to run it overnight.

I know you guys will probably rip me apart but thats how it is.
