Have all the tridents got working blinds though? I'm sure I've been these boards used on the Tridents recently with the blind where the blind should be blank.

I'm thinking maybe the white Trident doesn't have a roller blind but the other three do. We use signs on the tridents as well as the roller blinds...

Exciting news!
The continuing scaling back of Network Warrington's operations will probably leave more room for the smaller companies to fill in the gaps over time.
It's a shame in many ways, but at least we do have smaller operators in the area which will step in (when they deem it commercially viable).

I wonder whether Fairbrothers could make money from a service to the Woolston/Martinscroft area.
What with the 104 being cancelled and the 3 and 4(a) both now operating at half the frequency they did a few years ago, as well as a halving of the frequency of the 28(a) during the day, it may be worthwhile -- though of course this is far from conclusive evidence.

Yeah I think to be honest there is a fair bit of competition on Manchester Rd. Not only have you got the 1,2, 3, 4A, 28, 28A you also have the First Bus 100 service so I would imagine loadings wouldn't be all that great in this area....

RE: Impera Bus & Coach
While Firstbus 100 runs via Manchester Road I've noticed the times that I've been on it to Warrington that it very rarely stops as Network Warrington's 3 service is cheaper into Warrington and most passengers wait for that even if the 100 is first to come

Just general chit chat. No harm done..

Which would be better placed in the relevant firm's threads. I'll leave the current posts as are, or can at the author's request move them to a more suitable location, but further posts which don't relate to Impera will be moved regardless.

Thanks in advance for everyone's cooperation.

Since Impera hasn't existed for a while now, and the only comments which are likely to be posted here are about things like uses of their old vehicles, is it worth keeping this thread?
Should it be made read-only, if that is possible?

Completely agree Valandil. Impera is history now so it's probably best for this thread to be locked.
