Yes thought it was, it just seems very odd having another operator operating a service that has only been going for a few week or so. Its like Arriva NW Green Lane operating a St Helens route like the 89. That or S248 JUA is on loan or something as its part of Fairbrothers.

In all seriousness, they could do with sorting those destination displays out as soon as possible. Numbers on the left and destinations in capital letters are a breach of PSVAR regulations... fine on the deckers at the moment but not the case on the singles.

Other ops and/or passengers and the CMA would argue that the Council (as owners of the Interchange) are deliberatly trying to divert custom away from NW's competitors, or - worse still - give the impression some services don't exist.

Let's not forgot that the owner of one of NW compititors very publicly suggested last year that Warrington Council was purposely trying to thwart his attempts to expand by refusing to give him slots in the bus station so it's hardly surprising that thier unwiling to display other ops timetables.

RE: Limos North West
Should these Fairbrothers vehicles be carrying 'On hire to' notices since they are different companies, or is this not necessary because they are part of the same group?

About the dests: for a first stab, they are massive step up from the quality of the others in Fairbrothers's fleet when their other routes started.

I think they should.
The service MD a Travel run is on a different licence to Fairbrothers with different address etc.

Noticed the 110 at around 09:09 is shown as departing Le(i)gh Street on the company's website:
http://www.linknetworkbus.co.uk/110-warrington-widnes/
This is in contrast to other timetables which show it departing from the bus station 1 minute later:

(Should this thread be renamed 'Link Network' or 'MD Bus and Coach Travel' or maybe combined with http://dartslf.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1124 ?)
