The 125 year lease on Atherton depot has a sale agreed & is currently going through. I think someone's getting their wires crossed.

It seemed stage though as at least two posts were saying the same, maybe some disgruntled Eccles drivers, I was sent an email last night of a post saying that the depot was closing and also that a number of staff there had been made redundant as though service cuts were coming. It was in response to someones request for details about Eccles depot and was a Social Media based site. Both of us who received it did question it, as there is not the extra capacity at Bolton depot, and Altrincham is about 25 miles away from Bolton. Also the fact the site had been extended last year also made me question it.

I knew Atherton had had its lease terminated and was being cleaned out.
