Its currently a runcorn depot route but will be transferring to chester depot as of sometime in october hence the cancellation as it will be re registered onto the arriva wales disc.

Both J999ABW (2799) and MX09EKP (2935) are on the 10/10A today if anyone is after them, unusual to see two single deckers on there

Cadet DK55FYW (2555) is also on Blacons

Y549UJC appears to be the last dennis dart in the Chester depot that is still running, what condition is the chassis in as I have heard that darts like to rot a lot and this one has lived in wales for 16 years.

RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Chester Depot
I have seen today on Facebook by an Arriva Chester driver that the X30 will not longer be ran from Chester and a friend was told by an Arriva manager I think he said. Runcorn will run the X30 under contract from the Wales franchise because (I think this is the most daft excuse ever and should have been thought about before) if a bus breaks down in Runcorn or Warrington, they will end up dropping services because it is too far away to get a bus there for it to continue even roughly ontime.
I am also told there are no spare buses to send to Chester for the X30 and if the buses moved from Runcorn, then Runcorn would be down by quite a lot.

This could all be wrong but that is what I am told.

A further post on Facebook said the X30 will be under contract to Runcorn until XMas (when presumably, it will be re-registered back to Runcorn for 8th Janurary if that is what is happening)
