I hate to break it to you but there is already a Mold - Buckley - Ewloe service 5 to Cheshire Oaks and its never overly busy. There's also the 1, X2 & X8 from Chester. I don't know what gives you the impression that people all over north Wales & Cheshire will all of a sudden jump to use the X4 when there have been alternatives in place for years. They may get some pre-Christmas trade but it shouldn't take them long to realise their mistake. That said the 10A carries fresh air to Holywell all day and that still operates. Maybe that's their business model
