Also the back line of scrap vehicles are now slowly being taken away. That will allow more space in the depot for more buses should Chester get more routes in the future. What's interesting is that Chester was used as the scrap base for buses from different depots in north west and wales. I took some photos on my break last week and if allowed i'll upload them to show you what was there. Some of which won't be there now of course.

I reckon it's more likely to be a Cadet or Commander, but only time will tell I guess.

I would recommend an Enviro 400 , 13'10 vehicles they are, the Volvo ALX400's from Merseyside i think are 14'4 or 14'5 so cant fit through the bridge in Shotton.
