This is obviously not the same company as Wigan Coachways, which has just been taken over by Rotala.

Does anybody know how much it is for a single adult adult for the 620 Ashton in Makerfield to Hindley?

All of Wigan Buses services now have a new operator lined up ahead of its end of operations at the end of the month.
The 607 and 613 will be operated by Hattons, while the 630 and the 605, 606 & 610 Sunday services will be operated by Stagecoach. The 620 is replaced by an extended 559 service, operated by Cumfybus.

So im guessing that stagecoach could utilise some solos with the recent contracts they have gained with the 630 in wigan and the ones in Altrincham.

I'm guessing the few Enviro 200's that left Wigan may transfer back from Stockport to Wigan?
