Trains from Wigan, Hindley and Atherton

It appears there's engineering works and rail replacement bus service between Hindley, Atherton and Bolton to Manchester. There's currently nothing showing on the National Rail website about it but as you can see from below, the planner shows a bus calling all stations Wigan to Manchester Victoria via Hindley and Atherton.
