Route History

RE: Route History
Leigh Corporation Transport routes at January 1964.

Leigh was a joint operator with LUT & other operators on services 5, 16, 18, 26, 37, 39, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51, 52, 54, 55, 57, 58, 82 and 84. For details see the LUT list in the earlier post. Leigh operated most (possibly all) of 46 and 47, but had little (if any) active participation in many of the other joint services.

Leigh is listed as the sole operator of the following:
1. Leigh - Plank Lane.
2. Leigh - Cemetery / Astley (Higher Green)
3. Leigh - Hindley Green
4. Leigh - Tamar / Dangerous Corner.
4B. Leigh - Briar Grove / Abbey Lane.
6. Leigh - Higher Fold.
7. Leigh - New Henry St. Estate.
8. Leigh - Abram (Crankwood Rd.) (infrequent)
9 /9A. Leigh circulars via Holden Rd.
10 Leigh - Leigh Infirmary. (irregular / infrequent)

Jim Stones now operates some of the equivalent routes.
