With the news of REL looking to sell its coaching arms, i'm just wondering if anyone knows the companies they own?

I have (from google)...

Redwing Coaches, Davian Coaches, Klarners Coaches, Tendring Travel, & Felixstowe Travel but is this all of them or is their more?

REL bought many more businesses than these, but there has been much rationalisation and one or two of those listed here have been sold already. In addition to the ones you mention, the businesses they acquired included John James Luxury Travel, South Mimms Travel, Reg's Coaches, APT Coaches, Advance Minibuses, KB Coaches, the Lewis Coaches group, and Rainham Coach Company. Reg's Coaches moved on to further new ownership some time ago.

A new company has been set up in the name of ‘Redwing Coaches of London’ and appears to be set up by Skills, Nottingham - perhaps suggesting they’re taking over this part.
