Whole of Arriva's operation needs ripping up and starting from scratch. Fingers crossed DB get rid and the right operators move in! Not saying GNE & Stagecoach are perfect but they're stable and not in a race to the bottom unlike Arriva.

Quite surprised that they did not reduce their service levels a couple of weeks back - I think they are from tomorrow, but the amount of trips that has been lost over the past week has not been good, that is for sure.
