GNW has been paying these operators to run the service, but hiring buses would mean the operators are paying GNW. Makes me wonder what cost is deferred to run the service with the loan of a bus for it.

They are hired apparently. I’d imagine a new price to operate a service using GNW vehicles has been arranged.
Last night a GNW B9 failed with Selwyns on the 18. It was replaced with a coach even though it would have been quicker to send a replacement from Queens Road.
Not sure who’s doing the 100 with the B5 Hybrids, think it’s Harris/B&N but they are being stored in a car park where Collyhurst police station was.
