Stagecoach would probably have to foot the bill of transferring the Icomera Wi-Fi equipment from 27506-10 to the proposed new vehicles, as well. I can't remember what the exact cost of this work is - it's no more than £300/vehicle if my memory serves - but it's a cost they'll want to avoid regardless as I understand they were awarded with funding to fit the Wi-Fi equipment in the first place.

Nothing wrong with the Enviro300s on there, in my opinion. When the time does come, I maintain that I think Stagecoach will just reduce capacity, opposed to increasing the PVR and reducing profits (as a service like the 100 is unlikely to see any growth due to investment).
