Worst kept secret ever!

So the question now turns to fleet improvements... with Wigan also needing new vehicles, will there be a massive order?

So Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire now operates to Cheshire and North Wales!

It really does make sense to be honest, with Gillmoss being so reluctant to disperse of much of the older fleet, instead keeping it in reserve maybe this was the plan of shifting the reserve/withdrawn stock over to Birkenhead and Chester, then again most of the stuff in reserve isn't considerably newer is it.

No, but they'll make a darn good float to free up exFirst vehicles for paint faster. It'll also allow them a float to put some extra maintenance hours into some of the First vehicles and also mean they don't have to worry too much about scrapping none viable buses without affecting the PVR.
