You can already buy a ticket in St Helens that is valid in Preston; the North West Megarider Gold price at £26 for 7 days. This is valid on all Merseyside & South Lancs services, and Cumbria & North Lancs too.
Using that ticket you could get from Wigan via the 113, all the way up to Dumfries or over to Newcastle.

Does anyone know whether the North West Megarider Gold would be valid in the Wirral & Chester areas? The publicity on the Stagecoach website suggests not, but I seem to recall reading somewhere that the £10.30 dayrider can be purchased on this side of the water.

I assume that now the new ticket machines are in place, said ticket will be on the database anyway?
