I have a website which looks at the bus and coach operators in North East Wales. There are current fleetlists for all operators and most have a full historic fleet list.
Included are current depot fleet lists for Arriva Cymru. There are also a number of ceased opertators with historic fleet lists including the GHA Group
The address and a link is www.Ronsbusesandcoaches.com

Unfortunately I understand that SN04EFS did not finish its duties on the school service as in Graigfechan it failed and had to be towed back to Ruabon - might not have been an easy trip due to the very narrow roads,

In addition SN04EFU has now entered service. On Monday it was working 5/X5/X50 diagram.

I did find out yesterday that SN04 EFS actually refused to start in Ysgol Brynhyfryd then broke down just after dropping off the Graigfechan school kids. SN04 EFU was on the X50/X52's today, one of the B7LRE's are off the road again!!
