Does also say TfGM so maybe it's multi operator, like GNW can group...

    Useless Bus Services.

    Do Stagecoach in Chorley still do the twice weekly market day service 327 from Wrightington to Chorley? Used to do one trip into Chorley in a morning and back in an afternoon... just on a Tuesday and Friday... it was run by a bus coming off a school service in a morning and then back out again...

    Strangest bus destination screens?

    That Merseybus reminds me of when I used to work at Timeline in the late 90's, they had destination boxes that allowed you to independently set 'route' and 'destination' ... the route option had every number AND letter available along with a digital version of a roller blind (all types of towns...

    It's being reported that 19066/67/71 are to be transferred from Manchester to Preston (via Gilmoss) in order to cascade three more of the 181xx tridents to Chorley to replace 17018/9/21 for use on TfGM schools as the latter three are S-reg and dont fit in with the '15 years old or less'...

    Yes, i did mean 20793, as i said they were originally brought in to replace 20793 and others (some of which are in storage at Cowling) and 20794 is currently in use but not in public service Also add to that that the only single decker route in Chorley at the time (109) had been...
