It's interesting Stagecoach MCSL have reverted to Ribble Motor Services for it's legal identity.

I'm just wondering if the move from Glenvale is perhaps due to someone maybe wanting to use the Ribble identity again - a large or small company?

For Gillmoss it's interesting too the changes of identity over the years from LCPT, MPTE, Merseyside Transport Ltd, MTL Trust Holdings Ltd/MTL North, Arriva Merseyside, Glenvale and now Ribble although to the average passenger they'd just have seen Stagecoach since 2005.

I'm not 100% but who owns the Crosville Motor Services identity. Is it Arriva?

Yes, I think it's been mentioned that Transdrv or someone like that was making noises about it.

They have branded some contract services as Ribble Country.

Thanks lads for the Transdev info, nice to see Ribble back in Liverpool again too.

15846-15855, however how many to each Merseyside & Cumbria isn't known if it does happen. They're Gold ones ousted from Gloucester by new Scania/E400MMC there.
