That's the reason that I've said that it would be such a shame to lose the brand from GNE's fleet. That looks really good and suits the Versa's very well. Excellent I wasn't expecting the to be branded tonight. Is 8302-8305 all branded now or was it just 8304? Such a good branded, I'm sure passengers in Chester will be pleased with that! I've always liked the Versa, I'm glad the 61 are keeping there's.

8302 was done this morning and put out into service tonight, 8303 was being done tonight after being taken out of service, 8304 was done before service today and has been out all day I believe, 8305 was sent to Chester a few days ago I think for familiarisation and I'm led to believe that was branded early this morning too.
Expect them to be out on the interworking 28/34 tomorrow.

I thought they may use the Versa's on the 28/34 tomorrow, however the 28 route could quite literally kill those Versa's! I'm sure 8305 was out yesterday mind?

No Versa's on the 28 / 34A cycle this morning Solar's 4957 and 4959 are out and I should be able to confirm the third allocation when it goes out on the next 34A in half an hour.
EDIT: The one that I missed earlier is 4958 just back into CLS from a 34A and due out on the 28 at 11.47.

Just having a quick neb on the fb page and it appears there have been problems with the 60 today.
No idea what or how, but there seem to be a few unhappy passengers querying missing buses
