So by the sounds of it he's acquired yet another ops licence.

If it's anything like the Red Rocket fiasco then I carnt see it lasting long. I live in Manchester and have done all my life and I really don't think there's any real demand for an open top tour service. It's been tried, tested and never worked. Ensign and BTS did it for many years and pulled out as demand was very low. Stagecoach successfully run open top services else where I think if they thought it was a go-er they would be cashing in on it.
Imagine going on an open top tour on a full merky day like today... I'd want my money back at the end of it lol.
