Thought arriva weren't running the 484 anymore? Think it's now cumfybus or similar.

Is this the right thread? Rosso run the 484 Bury-Accrington and I didn't think Arriva ran that far north

The 484 arriva were running was the eccles - prestwich service.

Arriva recently won tendered 484 eccles to Whitefield from cumfybus

I’ll be heading to Bolton later to get the two Solo SRs I need before they go to Wrexham where abouts in Bolton am I likely to get them

They where meant to go on the 484 between Eccles and Whitefield but they are that unreliable they have spent a lot of time on the pits

So I guess I’ll have to wait until they get to Wrexham before I can get them then

The 484 today had sapphire pulsar 2684 & cadet 2517 rostered to it. Did arriva win it back as a commercial or a tendered service?

Driver I spoke to this morning said it's a route he quite enjoys working. Not mega quiet & easy enough timetable to keep to. Rare seeing an arriva bus in prestwich though as it's firm first territory mainly.

They won it back on tender months ago
