I remember the 582 brief extension to Newton Le Willows, at the same time GM Buses called it something like the original 582[i remember getting a GM Buses only timetable leaflet at the time] as Ribble had a competing 582, the extension didn't last long though, & think Ribble may have withdrawn there 582 soon after the Stagecoach takeover of Ribble.
