Hello everyone, yes blackburn transport is being sold to transdev on the 22/01/07, transdev have bought the fleet, the routes, and the name, but they havent bought the garage which has been valued at £3million

by blackburn council.

Yes there will be changes, some for the better, some for the worse-some routes will be taken over by Lancashire united and some will be axed (ie schools, the none profit routes ect). This is all from a reliable source-me i work for Blackburn Transport....until they start laying drivers off!!

Anyway this bus group www.darwentransport.org.uk has in its collect some vintage vehicles one being a leyland leapard no 42 JFV 259N so have a look and recollect!!

Thanks all for reading Yours Paul
