Of course the afternoon 47 is quite often an old bus so if one of the high spec Enviro 200 MMCs turns on the CAT5 it might be people would choose the nicer bus anyway. But then others might prefer an older bus with few passengers over a modern bus with lots of passengers.

The time difference is around 7 minutes to Grapenhall. Lymm, granted is around 13 minutes quicker. The 47 departs 2 stands down and you have to take into account my other point that heading into town, it's picking up passing trade. Heading out, people who want a certain service will return to the interchange and wait for their normal route at the normal stand.
It'd be interesting if anyone has any observations on the 11:46 or 13:46 Cat5 off Warrington Interchange. See what the usage is like around these times.
