You’re making the assumption the two drivers who went up to Edinburgh would have been willing or would have been equipped to undertake local service work.
What if the two drivers were office-based and didn’t have their driver bags (as they weren’t expecting to give up their evenings to stay at work following their day in the office)? They couldn’t have done local service work but were willing to stop back for 5-6 hours to do something that was as simple as driving a bus with no cash fares to deal with that they weren’t equipped to deal with?
