They are services with an X number so they are scheduled services, not day trips. They are so popular they have often been full before the last pick-up point in Blackburn.

Last year Hyndburn Council made special concessions for the Fleetwood, Blackpool and Cleveleys bus, enabling pensioners and the disabled to use it at a special rate of £1. Now it will cost £12 and most pensioners won't be able to afford a dayt trip. It's a disgrace"

Love the 'Regular Day Tripper' label.
