(3 hours ago)PH - BQA wrote Agreed that they seem to get their 60s better - but realistically it's more the fault of Stagecoach themselves than depot specific. They've got far too many buses up here which aren't suitable for the work they are used on.
100% agree. The amount of singles Walker has. I'll wait for someone to tell me which Walker route warrents a single decker.
Walker only needed the singles for the 317, and the 15 which got withdrawn almost a decade ago.

They must have expected to lose a lot of contracts when they bid for it, and have only lost the withdrawn M71, with Stanley Travel giving the X46 back to GCT as well. With a PVR of 6, it was a lot to commit to. But having won it last year, they should have been prepared for it this year.
If I were to take a wild guess, when it comes to getting contracts, GCT just click "bid" without even looking and just pray they've got the buses for it
