They are yes.

If you also note the branding on the renowns they state "Warrington, Widnes and St Helens" as places served... (Link)

Wow, they're quite smart!

Found a timetable for anyone interested:

Don't know if it's just a typo, but it's odd that they have it down as taking 5 minutes *less* to go Warrington to Penketh Lane Ends during the afternoon peak!

Is it just coincidence that they have used similar bodied vehiches to what Network Warrington use and the livery isn't exactly massively different either lol.

Considering the route they're used on, you might have expected them to be painted blue/drab/whatever that colour of Arriva's is, as the vehicles could look like theirs too if they wanted them to!

To be fair though they do look very smart, I just wonder why Fairbrothers own vehiches arnt treated to a similar quality livery.

Was wondering about both these points myself, Have they got any other Buses except the 2 Renowns?

But there is mention on the M D TRAVEL website that its part of the fairbrother transport group.
4 ops discs arnt going to get them far unless there going to apply for an licence increase in the near future.
