Go North West

RE: Go North West - FLEETNEWS ONLY - NO STRIKE TALK!
Come to think of it and going slightly off thread (Sorry) one of the reasons why these School Extra dupes were actually needed was due to the fact that at the start of this School Year or was it the last one (Can't Remember) TfGM cut the amount of School Services that operated to/from Schools forcing some kids to actually catch the already busy service buses to their appropriate schools.

Yes Schools still have dedicated School Services serving them but its nowhere near the levels that they were years ago from what I can remember, the only really dedicated School Services that operate now are the ones that don't actually follow a service route and follow their own route. Most School Services that duplicated a service route are the ones that got withdrawn for example the extra 409s from St Cuthberts in Rochdale don't seem to run anymore and neither do the extra 17s to/from Cardinal Langley in Middleton and I don't mean S extra services that operate now.
