Looks like this is confirmation of which services that Go North West will be running from Bolton and Wigan depots from 24 September.
Some minor changes to the numbering of services will take place with the 34/34A between Leigh/Worsley and Manchester re-numbered to 35 (to avoid confusion with Arriva's 34 service from Leigh to St Helens), while the 575 short journeys to Horwich will be re-numbered to 576.
Also confirmation that the 10 (Brookhouse-Manchester) and 163 (Bury-Manchester) will also be part of the Bee Network from September, both running from Bolton depot.
The 362, which currently interworks with the 575, will operate from Wigan depot, while the 575 runs from Bolton depot.
Vantage service V4 is set to return as well, presumably providing a peak-time service between East Lancs Road Park & Ride and the city centre.
The recently acquired buses, for the Bee Network are numbered as follows:-

Your guess, is as good as mine.
so which mean all the fleet from ex-london and essex and newcastle bus going wigan why no electric bee network to wigan?. i bet all new electric bus going bolton cos near manchester, salford, part of bury. which is disappoint for wigan passenger or not. thought maybe try get new like Yutong E12 would be better come wigan. that's my guess.
Thank you, guys

Y7THG is ex-British Blue Tours of Birkenhead. It was new to Abellio as SN59AVY, 9511 and passed to Go Coach before BBT.

Well, I would think. 13 of them will be kitted out for Busway. unless they plan to buy other buses for that route.
