RE: Merseytravel gain London Style Bus Powers
With regards to fleets I think Stagecoach and Arriva are about on par. I find Arriva are ever so slightly better for leg room on their modern vehicles. In short both companies have R reg vehicles running, both have buses that could rattle the skeleton out of you and both have buses people over 5ft can't sit on. The only difference in fleet i could see is Stagecoach having to source more and newer deckers, as if I am not mistaken they have 6? and most are 11-13years old now? Not including the Olympians in storeage for when the "newer" ones head back down south for the Olympics.
