Not a total surprise. All the route changes in the past couple of years had made it painfully slow & unattractive for many passengers. Having increased from about 90 minutes to almost 2 hours to travel between places about 15 miles apart, it was never going to attract much long-distance traffic, not even for people with free passes.

(Indeed it is now quicker to travel via Chorley on Arriva 362 from Wigan, changing there to Stagecoach 125 onwards to Preston. )
