Although, the bus does have the advantage of terminating in the town centre of Northwich and serving Hartford station and a few small villages without a train service.

It's not just black & white, because there's a parallel railway line, the train is quicker so not bother putting a route on, there is a couple of large villages that the 82 serves Tarvin & Kelsall some distance from the railway, well beyond walking distance anyway, i think Kelsall will be left without a bus, & Tarvin only the hourly 84, plus the train, although it takes 30 minutes Chester-Northwich compared to 55 minutes on the bus, the train is hourly as well.
