Whether it's all round better option remains to be seen.

The service number for Knutsford-Macclesfield could be a typo (typos and other mistakes aren't uncommon on VOSA registrations - there's one on the D&G 89 registration as well as one on the new 130 registration), if they planned to run it as a through service they didn't need to register it as a separate service and I don't think Altrincham-Wilmslow-Knutsford-Macclesfield will be too long to count as a local service for driver hours restrictions like the High Peak TP service, which has been divided in to separate registrations.

Its 28 miles by the fastest route. With all the deviations, is likely to exceed 30 miles. so, the separate registrations probably take account of that to run it on domestic hours.
