Route History

RE: Route History
One of the most interesting routes in St Helens since deregulation is the 10. It started out operating between St Helens and Liverpool, before being extended into Ashton, then Bolton and eventually into Manchester. I'm not entirely sure how long this journey took or what route was taken, but it was a real mammoth of a journey.

Eventually, of course, after peace broke out between MTL and GMN/GMS the service was cut back to Ashton again, and then diverted into Earlestown, befor going back to its origins and just running between Liverpool and St Helens after the Arriva takeover.

Does anybody else have any memories of this route from the MTL era?
