Arriva North West - Bolton Depot

RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot
I find it a shame what Arriva have done to Bolton Depot as over the years we've seen various service cuts and no some services don't run alltogether, I mentioned this to a good friend of miine the other week and told him about what services used to operate from Bolton Depot and what don't now.

Going back about 5 years or maybe less (not to sure) Bolton used to have quite a number of late turns which used to be staff by an extremely friendly set of drivers who would do the same late duty from what I remember week in week out and passengers would get to know who their regualr driver was and the driver would know where to drop them off as well, me and and a driver friend of mine who used to do late 362s used to always have a laugh with the late crew especially when we got back to Bolton Depot at night and now Bolton's late turns have been drastically cut from what they used to be.

Also some of the daytime routes that used to operate weren't bad either for example the Daisy Hill Circulars which Roger Jarivs set up when he used to be Bluebus, covering parts of Daisy Hill and Westhoughton that as far as I know dont get a bus service now.
