I forgot about the 540, although last time I went on it most services terminated in Westhoughton (only B7RLE's seem to go any further) I'm not sure what the frequency of full line services are now. The 575 leaves the S1 boundary near Blackrod.

Ive used a system1 many a time on 575 without any issues,and I know others also use s1 on it as well,because it starts and ends in the s1 boundry your okay using them

I have seen with other routes (non-Arriva) that do a similar thing but you could use the operator's saver tickets but not S1 over the affected areas so I presumed 575 has the same rules.

Does this include routes where there is an alternative run by the same operator?

I dont think the 575 leaves Greater Manchester anywhere so should be valid at all stops anyway

I tried checking the Wigan north map on the TFGM site but my internet provider has reduced speed to a crawling pace so loading .pdf files is not currently possible, everyone else should be able to see it: http://www.tfgm.com/journey_planning/Doc...-North.pdf

Am currently looking at the map and that backs up what am saying, stays within Greater Manchester

Does anyone know the current status of 4178 after it's bridge accident in Eccles? It's the only DLP I've not done and the damage from what I've seen online didn't look too bad to repair. Also does anyone know if it will be allocated to a different depot if/when it's fixed? Thanks.
