Hi all,

Me and a couple pals came to realise GNE had been allocating their usual Streetlites more frequently during school times. Obviously, streetlites are branded and allocated to the 301 as they should be, but we have noticed a strange pattern.

On a school day, all buses operating the 301 are usually Coaster or Corporate Streetlites, which are obviously not uncommon on this route.(You sometimes get the odd Versa as well.) However, on a weekend, about 1/3 of the buses running on the 301 are Geminis which really baffles me.

Surely on school days, GNE would allocate more double decker buses to accomodate for the higher frequency of passengers. Kids will obviously be travelling back and forth from school so surely it would make sense for there to be buses with a larger capacity. However, it seems to be quite the opposite. 

Just wondered if anyone else noticed this and if anyone agrees with my opinion. Does anyone know why?

I know it's strange, it just really baffles me.
