No I don't want a name change of the Merseyside Dennis Dart website but why do we have Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan on here? First Manchester too and any other operator based outside Merseyside

Probably because people are interested in other areas and people from those areas may also be interested in ours. It brings more people into the forum and no doubt helps with its success. Also people on here will like to know of area and countrywide fleet movements that go on and also helps us all to gain more knowledge of the bus scene. I'm sure there are other reasons that somebody else may want to add to

I'd like to take this opportunity to remind all members of the South Lancs and Halton Dennis Dart Forum that neither 'New Merseyside' Transport or 'Network Greater Manchester' are selling their operations.

And given the fact the stagecoach operations in the south lancs area is on the glenvale licence which first started in merseyside lol it would be ludicrous to leave out the licence home region.

RE: Sale of Local Authority bus companies
It just sounds less gobbledegook calling it Stagecoach South Lancashire and Halton. I can see where your all coming from and I suppose at the end of the day , does the customer really care what its called.

RE: Sale of Local Authority bus companies
It doesn't though does it, it's just a ludicrous suggestion, by that reckoning we should leave Warrington of network Warrington and just call it network. Or Wales out of arriva north west & Wales because it's less to say and so on.

Lol no please, if somebody is on the 14 from Widnes to Runcorn are they going from Merseyside to Halton or will they still be in the Halton region?

RE: Sale of Local Authority bus companies
Lol if travelling from Widnes it's Cheshire so certainly not Merseyside..
