What non-school TfGM routes do Go Goodwins/Little Gem run? Since the Altrincham changes, I'm a bit out of the loop. Thanks.

Thanks for that. Look to be a nice fit with Diamond. Looks like their buses will be returning to a purple livery again!

New Destinations for the new tenders starting in October are now programmed into Diamond Northwest fleet now including for the 33 route Diamond have picked up on tender, not to sure yet wheter any of the Goodwins Destinations have been programmed into the fleet yet though.

Do you know which other tenders they have won from October?

If a deal has not been finalised and signed there's a chance it could not go through, so the deal can't be officially announced.

Diamond have registered all the Go Goodwins buses service with VOSA effective 1st September 2017

Number of school services in Trafford also now registered to Diamond Bus North West operating licence. Are these mainly routes Go Goodwins operated in the last academic year?

I personally feel this should be kept in the Goodwins thread, perhaps a new thread? The whole (SLT) thing in the thread title doesn't make it fit here. 20724 YJ57XWO is ex SLT and one of 3 on loan here. Another is 20857 MX56NLU. YJ57ZMO doesn't exist.
