Northwich or Crewe are probably better bets than Winsford itself.

Crewe you miss out on the 37A, 29 and the Northwich locals.

Northwich you miss out the 31, 37, 84 and 6.

Winsford is probably the best in my opinion though try and get Crewe in there for the other services which you would otherwise miss.

This is to confirm that from today Arriva Winsford is now managed by Arriva Wales Management team.

That's stretching the border a little bit! Do you know why?

I keep forgetting about the Welsh towns of Winsford and Macclesfield haha. Yes the only connection they have now to any other division is Arriva Cymru in Chester.

Could this be a re-organisation of the North West business to aid a sale of the business. Liverpool and Manchester must be a more lucrative for a bidder if rural routes in Cheshire weren’t included??.

Does the word "Winsford" mean precisely that, or does it include the outstation at Macclesfield ? I should have thought that the latter could be better run from Wythenshawe.
