Yes, it was more of a case that Arriva only served Cheshire Oaks if they got the desired patronage, when they didn't, they pulled the routes that served there. I think there were even plans for the 404 to serve there at one time (if it didn't already) too.

On a totally unrelated note, I've had an Optare Solo on the 495 every day this week, a poor allocation for the morning peak journeys, every journey has had a standing load. I understand though they're probably more than ideal for the less used daytime journeys though.
