Somerset are for sale."

I would not always believe what a magazine has speculated especially because Chester depot has recently employed new members of staff and why would they be looking to sell two weeks before the start of the QBP. Chester is certainly not going anywhere, First are committed to Chester and they are making a profit. Birkenhead isn't though and are losing a substantial amount each day.

I not ranting over this because it could happen because we know First want to ditch parts of their network.
