(16 Jul 2014, 7:21 pm)gtom Does anyone know who/if anyone is taking over the Blackpool shuttle?

Still bemuses me that the thing runs

Saw the Compass Royston run a few weeks back in Stockton.

A lad and a lass had the back row (and entire bus) to themselves.
Babies in 9month. Probably conceived on the a66.

Given they don't finish service work until next Sunday, no they won't have done. Indeed I saw one in Durham this evening.

No - they appear to be cropping up with Arriva elsewhere in the UK...

No need for them any more with the Nexus work finished! Can do the bingo contracts with (what's left of) the coaches I guess!

Appreciate that, but thought they would have been in better nick than some of the existing ANE stock.
Saying that, if they are in decent nick, then they can get a few quid for them.

No need for them in the ANE fleet really, come the end of 2014 the only minibuses we will have will be the 05 plate MPDs and a bunch of Solos. And even then that's too many!

Wouldn't be surprised to see classic vehicles move to jh coaches when operations are finally wound up, seen as the md is john shipley (classic md ian shipleys son).

It might be best that they do sent minibuses to ane because it will release some of the elderly minibuses for scrap

Something I've never thought about before, but certainly related. If say Operator A ran a contract for Nexus with a PVR of 4. If Operator B then won that work from Nexus, would TUPE apply for the 4 staff required to drive that contract?

When GNE won the Quaylink contract, the Stagecoach staff were Tupe'd across.
