RE: Was D-Reg pointless?
The birth of the 1986 North Western was quite an anomaly. The name was apparent a good few weeks before d-reg when all vehicles were acquired by this new company. The routes stayed as was. A few Olympians gained the new livery but most of them had stickers over the Ribble logo with the NW one. The windscreens had a note advising that they were 'on loan to Ribble' until the services were handed over. Then all hell broke loose. What an interesting time that was! There was an ad in the Liverpool Echo for North Westerm before d-reg which is something that the government must have wanted back then. Imagine that now!! |
