I'm not sure what's happened to the destination display on AA02 GHA. It's been making regular appearances on the 88 route recently but each time I've seen it on that route it's just had the route number and no destination. I've seen that bus showing the correct destinations for the 88 route before so it was programmed in unless it's had the system reset or replaced.
The 88 route isn't the best one to put a bus without a properly working destination display given the buses use the same stops in Wilmslow in both directions and a bus in one direction can arrive a minute or two before the bus in the other direction.

CA07 GHA is similar, it used to display the full 16 destination board but now just shows the number. It's strange.

R838PRG has been in Ruabon for a while after it sufferred a significant incident with its rear axle in Warrington a few months ago. R839PRG has been at Ruthin - when last seen these two were still in their red livery.
R838PRG are back on the road this morning which I spotted at Garden City near Queensferry about just before 11.30am, heading route SP1 to Ellesmere Port/Cheshire Oaks. Still wear red livery.

Yep it needs sorting regards the displays, some buses on have front displays or front & side. They all need full led all round, also anyone know who owns a yellpw decker probs an olympian of some spec.
Its G116 NGN, usually seen on school routes around northwich???

Googling that registration number brought up a green Holmeswood Coaches decker, so probably a bus belonging to Walkers Coaches (who are owned by Holmeswood) which has been converted to a yellow school bus.
My old school bus was Walkers Coaches for 3 years, then the contract went to someone else. With it having a loading of around 50, most days we had a coach but some days we got old Crossville, North Western or GM Buses deckers, which had Walkers livery but interiors which hadn't been touched since they had transferred.

Macclesfield currently has two yellow 'deckers allocated in the shape of the former Holloway Volvo B7TL/Plaxton Presidents X635 LLK and X639 LLX
