This was originally the legal name of Strawberry but when that company was merged into SLT, Rolling Solutions became a dormant company. A rejig by D&G "Group" saw Rolling Solutions be reactivated and used instead of the original D&G entity.
Green Triangle Buses has never traded as D&G.
Just checked and it was the other way around from what I thought some old South Lancs Travel bus registrations say Rolling Solutions Limited t/a South Lancs Travel opposed to some D&G ones saying Green Triangle Buses t/a D&G Bus.

Something happened which resulted in him leaving SLT and at the same time selling Strawberry to D&G which saw it being merged into SLT.
Thanks for that Nicholas.

Strawberry gained a Dart/East Lancs EL2000 from D&G, the Cadets went the other way after the merger/takeover.
Spotted Wright Streetlite BV63OEW being hooked up to a Bardsleys recovery wagon in Ormskirk bus station at about 4pm yesterday. It had obviously failed while working Edgehill University shuttle route EL1. A 57 reg Optare Solo was bought down to replace it.
Ex slt YN04GMU has been scrapped
How long as YJ61 JJF been here for as noticed its out tonight on the 715
is that a solo or a versa?
I have it as a Preston hybrid Versa.
Thats what it is jcksmnr in park and ride livery
Saw a white Wright Streetlite yesterday with Diamond stickers and ticket ads etc on Manchester Road in Leigh or Astley. Can't rember the route but pretty sure it was a 64 or 65 reg. Anybody any ideas?
The only other Streetlite I've found on this thread is KV63 *** working the VH1 shuttle in Ormskirk.
