According to someone on Facebook whos normally reliable regarding SLT stuff the 4 Enviro 200s where not part of the sale, He says they transferred to D&G's Crewe Depot at the last moment, In their place is 3 *Red Scanias* I assume these are the Scania Omnicitys that where here just over a Year ago

No the 640/641 will still serve orrell post and pemberton just it will serve kitt green etc before going to pemberton/orrell post on the 641 and after serving orrell post/pemberton on the 640 just like the 638/639 did.
RE: South Lancs Travel - T42 PVM - 02/03/2015 09:10
Looking at the new route map on TFGM Website it will still serve Pemberton but not Orrell Post
RE: South Lancs Travel - motormayhem1 - 02/03/2015 09:38
Sorry yeah that will be correct bbb as the 638/639 came out at the pemberton shops lights.

Only 4 of the Scania's?
RE: South Lancs Travel - Jack - 02/03/2015 14:09
That's what I thought when I first saw the list. We'll have to wait and see if it turns out any different.

What I'm wondering is were D&G actively trying to sell SLT or were they approached by Rotala. What's interesting is that at around the time of the Preston bus buy out a good friend of mine who works quite heavily within the industry told me Rotala were very keen on building a decent network in Greater Manchrster so I don't know whether I'm surprised or not.
Will Rotala just sit and make suttle changes to what they have inherited or will they keen to expand into other areas of Manchester?
