Presumably the 920 runs off another service, could that be the 10 or 10A?

The 920 is on a seperate running board but normally you would run in on your first half and take a bus back out the depot for the 920 but most drivers take a single deck but 2 of the polish tends to have a decker instead.

Does anyone know how the 313 runs off the 395? Is it every driver going 352-395-313? Or is there a driver change in Wigan? Seen 440's running the 313, bit of a waste but nice to see

Every other bus does a full circuit so it would be:
1....352 - 395 - 313 - 395 - 352 etc
2....352 - 352 - 352 - 352 - 352 etc
3....352 - 395 - 313 - 395 - 352 etc
4....352 - 352 - 352 - 352 - 352 etc

Doing 352 -> 395 -> 313 -> 395 -> 352 seems like a long time without a break to me, or do drivers often have to go so long without one?

You can drive 5 and half hours without a break

It only takes 4 hours to do a full round trip:
352 st helens to wigan 50 mins
395 wigan to skelmersdale 50 mins
313 circular 20 mins
395 skelmersdale to wigan 50 mins
352 wigan to st helens 50 mins
Spare mins in between are used as drop backs at either end of each journey.
