seems very fair to me , they have 4 months to get their backsides to the seaside for FREE and its in the summer months so whats the problem ?

theres families out there who cant afford a day trip to the seaside so be greatfull for what you get if you ask me

Last year the X64 started from Bacup.
I can't see that happening this year because Rossendalers will be reluctant to pay the full fare - so it's likely to be from Accy only (going via Ossy to the coast)
If PB really wanted to do us all a favour, he would have subsidised the X82 which would have served Gt Harwood, Rishton, and Clayton as well as Ossy and Accy.
That X82 wont be running because that gets no subsidy.

According to the Observer the service startson 4th of May and sets at Thwaites Road. It then goes via Oswaldtwisle and Accrington and will also call at Clayton-Le-Moors, Great Harwood and then Rishton before heading off to the coast calling at Blackpool and Fleetwood.
Dosen't say what time the outward journey starts but return is at 4.05pm from Fleetwood to get to Thwaites Road for 6.30pm. Anybody wanting any more info can ring Northern Blue on 01282-456351:)
So well done PB:)

So it is taking the route that was the X82.
Seems a shame that it has been granted to a French owned firm instead of the local firm that used to run the X82.
