RE: Route History
My Ribble timetable book for 76, the 352/362/372, 372 only operated 1 journey each way Monday to Friday, the 362 was hourly with the 352 20 to 40 minutes, i remember the 372 being every couple of hours after d-reg. The original Ribble 125 went Preston-Wigan via Chorley, the 126 was Preston-Bolton, at d-reg, Ribble diverted the 125 to Bolton, the new company North Western extended the 352/362/372 to Chorley via Wigan to cover the withdrawn section of the 125, the through route lasted for quite a few years think well into the 90s before they ended up being split at Wigan, may have been the Skelmersdale Plus era that saw the route split at Wigan. Just to add when Crosville moved there Liverpool depot to Love Lane, they gave up there share of the 89/89A St Helens-Speke/Halewood to Ribble, Ribble operated the route from Wigan depot but interworked the 89 with the 352/362/372, only couple of late night journey's ran dead from Speke/Halewood to Wigan.
