Have to ask because it sounds like an unusually large number and the article also gets the spelling of the town's name wrong.

I would imagine it will be something along the lines of applying poppy stickers to 30 vehicles as opposed to a full livery applied. I'm fairly sure they done something similar in the past in terms of applying stickers.

Okay, that makes much more sense. Maybe they might even have bulk ordered to have enough for future years as well.

Not to sure which one but apparently a Network Warrington bus caught fire while in Leigh this morning while it had broken down and driver managed to get all the passengers off before it went up.
