At first i thought is was for rail replacement but arriva wales do the rail replacement for the Wrexham train...

A double decker is never used for a rail replacement on the Bidston - wrexham line due to a low bridge in Wales , the operator of rail replacements varies as the procurement of buses for this service is made by Arriva Trains Wales control in Cardiff .

And of course the low bridge on Liverpool road in Neston - its routed to go down there too!
