Isnt there National Express does these types of runs at these destinations, GNE are not going to compete against National Express, even Stageocoach are with there megabus coaches. wasn't it awhile ago that Stagecoach tried to purchase National Express but the people who owned National Express refused to sell?. maybe when GNE had Voyager fleet with ex Ok coaches fleet which were given to Classic as a compromise so Classic gives up running bus services compete against Northern routes at the time.
