Other Works Services
When Stott's appeared on the scene in Greater Manchester in the 1970s/1980's, many factories and mills were still operant back then and Stott's had worked a number of work contacts to provide transport for employees. The decline in industry throughout the late 20th century meant many of these contacts expired and were not renewed as many factories and mills shut down, however there is still one contact operant this present day. Scott Mills in Greenfield has a contract worked by Stott's in the afternoons, usually the route number is the '125' service, which has been working since the existence of Stott's. The 125 service to Scott Mills is one of the very few works services still in operation; if any are at all.
