How many bus depots that were used by bus operators which became part of Arriva in Cheshire still remain as bus depots?
Apart from the obvious North Western Road Car Co I can think of Nova Scotia, Stevensons and Star Line Travel which got absorbed in to Arriva.
I know North Western closed the Knutsford Star Line Travel depot, with the buses transferring to the Wythenshawe depot. There was also Ambassador Coaches t/a Star Line Travel which was part owned by Bullocks. North Western took the 'Airport division' and sold it to Selwyns and the Knutsford division became Bullocks share and the coaches transferred to Stockport.
I think Nova Scotia had a Lostock Gralam depot and a Winsford depot.
