RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot
How often do deckers see service on 575 shorts? I’m suprised to see 4107 on there as I’ve never seen a First decker on there and as for Arriva I thought they only ever saw service on the 537 and the odd 10

First used to allocate Deckers to it a lot, Arriva's last deckers will get on there from time to time

Not to sure how Arriva's 575 duties to Wigan work now but I know that in the past deckers have worked 575s to/from Wigan but only on peak duties that don't work onto 362s when they get to Wigan.

An update to this, Apparently the Commanders due is 2595 and 2596

4102 is back on the Pits, Spent almost all year there having only managed about 3 days in service.. What a treat Speke are getting

Just looking at the 575 timetable & TFGM issued timetables still have Wigan Bus Station listed as the starting/terminating point even though the bus station is shut for redevelopment, but Arriva own timetables have the correct locations in Wigan Market Hall or Wigan Richmond Street.

It’s ‘Wigan Bus Station’ on a few timetables on TfGM website that I’ve looked. On page one of each timetable it does state the bus station is currently closed for redevelopment and that temporary stops are available. It doesn’t however state which stop the services start from.

The first swap happened yesterday, 2596 is into the Fleet from Speke with 4107 going to Speke in its place
