RE: Stagecoach Merseyside - Gillmoss Depot
I did wonder if Sheffield's Enviro400s were going to be from Gillmoss... (They're heading over the Pennies to capitalise on First's poor planning - as a result of the Sheffield QPS network changes, First services are now regularly overloaded & leaving passengers behind, so Stagecoach are increasing vehicle size on some routes to compensate) |

Can't comment on the terms of the QPS as I'm not familiar with it. First aren't to blame for the changes to the network - but they are to blame for replacing deckers (on routes that previously had a joint presence with Stagecoach as well!!) with a mixture of darts and other single decks. That is the stupidity which Stagecoach are trying to/hoping to capitalise on, and I'm told it's already the case that people will boycott First services and wait for Stagey instead. |

That won't help them - the QPS sets the price of network/multi-operator tickets, and the pricing is designed to get people to purchase them rather than singles/returns in most cases. Remember also that Stagecoach have the advantage of operating the Sheffield Supertram, and most (all?) Stagecoach passes are also valid on the trams. |
