Unusual sighting of the year. Is there something happening along the route today or are NW really that short of vehicles!

The vintage bus is out in service purely because of Christmas. It won't be a regular thing...

Not just promoting the 'Pops' route and 'Dallam discount' but I'm sure something will have been said that it can be hired for events. We also go from old to new as we look forward to the announcement of the new fleet in the new year. I'm sure it's very exciting times for RSTurbo and colleagues.

What about the routes where there is no competition ?

Haha haha. Ben wouldn't do that. He is only bothered about the competition routes to throw Fairbrothers off. You will notice how the 25 is the same timetable and prices despite running straight through Orford. If you are introducing an offer to an area, you do it to all services really. Routes with no competition will never get anything. Look at Arriva. No returns on half of their routes. Stagecoach no returns on quite a few routes (reasonably priced though). Routes with competition get all the attention.

You need to get in there Mr Howard. Some good ones around Warrington. Not naming places.
