I would love to know how Easybus are getting is so badly wrong. If GHA and D Jones can do it, Why can't Easybus. I had a lot of hope for them but if they are playing silly beggers, they won't get anywhere. Timing buses behind Arriva, the 42 runs on the same times as Arriva (despite missing a massive opportunity for a bus between 5 and 6 from the industrial estate) and they can't keep ontime on an easy route.

If they can't run things now, imagine the state they will be in if/when Arriva increase the pressure (reducing fares, running late to pick up the competitors passengers are common Arriva tactics). Considering how well the minibuses run, how can this be so different. I am baffled. You can tell they don't know what they are doing in the bus side. Minibuses there is help available from those who run the minibuses in London.

Yeah but the TL already existed before the Commercial Service's this is what im saying i dont see why Valentines were not helped out granted an extra Solo not even brand new could of been stock to run the TL1/2 separately on a better time basis as the TL1/2 Timetable granted its disgraceful like how WCBC ruined the 146.
