I have no doubt it would have been taken off at Chester though.
I believe two have been on the X21 (on an unscheduled journey), but other than scholars, I don't think any have been off-route.
I wonder how Chester compares to Blyth for performance?
Granted, they are different companies - but it will be interesting to compare lost mileage, delays etc for two routes of a similar type/duration.
Then you have Blyth, who keep the routes running, with whatever they have spare and Chester running light.
There is always a downside to the standards set by Blyth in performance, and we all know what that is...
