Im aware of that and that sounds jolly exciting...If you can withstand standing room only, delays and higher fares

Any airport route should probably be express, i.e. not via Altrincham, and revert to the old Broomedge route number of (7)37 (geddit?!?!) - but I can't see it ever happening unless there were some funding.

I get what you mean, A pity but would have been good to have a airport link as an alternative to rails with is recent increase fares

If Warrington did get a direct airport bus there's no guarantee it would cost no more than the current Network Warrington day ticket price or that it would be an express service.

Wonder if they will extend some journeys commercially from Newton to Warrington. It would make a lot of sense and save a little bit of dead mileage.

Looking again at the tweet it looks like it will indeed be Warrington - Wigan

We just need route learning on it. After Newton station I have absolutely no idea how it gets to Wigan :-)
