Aintree Coachline / Helms of Eastham

RE: Aintree Coachline / Helms of Eastham
Coming up are some changes to the Aintree Coachlines/Helms network it seems. Registrations have gone in for timetable changes to the 40 and 41. The 272 is cancelled from 31st March as well.

It seems that the new timetables are on Traveline which is good to see
The tourist scam, Sorry, route 40, will now run 7am-7pm Mon-Sat, every 15 minutes, with a reduced frequency 3-4pm. Interesting that they are expanding the service considering that they can't even run the current service, plenty of instances of buses not turning up. Traffic Commissioner would have a field day if they did reliability checks.

Route 41 sees the 07:33 from Waverton, 17:15 and 18:15 from Chester withdrawn

Rotue 272 being withdrawn is hardly a shock, always found it bizzare that there is a refusal to merge the 272 into the school services, huge missed opportunity for increasing profit and enabling cross subsidy.
