Nobody has noticed that this pretty much means the end of Checkmate of Mossley's frequent daytime operating in regards to the 418...

Thanks,

They have lost the 418 (or given it up) and have gained the 403??

It looks like they have given up their 220/C20 and 346 journeys to run this new tender.

Oh! Well that certainly is an interesting move then! What about the 404? the 403 and 404 being sister routes...

Thanks,

Yep I believe they have the 404 as well.
I'm presuming this is a 2 bus working as they de-registered 2 buses worth of work.

Out of interest do Checkmate still run the service between Hyde and Marple? And do they still operate the Saddleworth school service?

Checkmate still run the 303, 304 and 305 services. Their journeys on the 220 will end in April, which will also see an end to the C20 service. The 345 has been cancelled for July 2014.

As for Saddleworth school services, the 828 is now First/JPT. The 826 is still operated by Checkmate but will be taken over by SS Travel from September, as will the afternoon journey on the 829 from Bluecoat to Rochdale.

I've seen the American Bluebird school bus around Oldham a few times in the past and wondered who it was who operated it.

S&s travel operate the wrecks of buses around oldham, patchwork paint and dents all over, I am scared to see what they use on the 418, good on checkmate for winning a bigger tender....

It will be interesting to see how S&S do on the 418. Despite their lack of livery and vehicles in various colours etc they apparently do ok in Blackburn but I agree them American school buses are hideous.

As far as I can gather S&S don't have anything to do with Blackburn anymore and all of there vehicles are now based just off Ashton Road in Oldham
