🚌🚌 TODAY BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY 🚌🚌 If you are looking for something a little different to do on TODAY Bank Holiday Monday (Monday 6th April 2026) and you are looking for some fantastic pictures of vintage buses (I was surprised how many I remember getting on!!!) or you have a bus enthusiast in your circle please have a look/share the information or just give to a fun day raising money for two great charities (Alzheimer's society and Cancer research). A word from the organisers: Chester Bus Fest 2 is shaping up to be a busy day with over 50 departures and the first bus leaving outside the Chester Railway Station at 9.50am then departing every 10 - 15 minutes throughout the day ahead. The timetable for the Chester City Transport buses is now available, with the Crosville timetable to follow shortly. Buses expected to be used throughout the day are Guy Mk IV and V, Daimler and Leyland Fleetlines, Leyland National, Olympians and Leopard, Dennis Dominator and Dart and Bristol L and Lodekka. All monies raised will go directly to our two chosen Charities; Alzheimers Society and Cancer Research as I am sure you will agree, they have both affected us all directly or indirectly during sometimes within our lives with either friends or loved ones. @ShitChester @Dee1063

I have it on good authority (2 men in high vis having a break) that Nun s Rd will be opened on Saturday. They ve done a really good job and it looks as though mountaineering gear will no longer be required to walk past those trees.

Come and say hello - some of our lovely Green and Blue Badge Tourist Guides will be there helping out! @BBGuides @TouristGuiding @ShitChester
