The owl must have lost its appeal aha
Owl weren't really working to be honest
When i was waiting for my Bus home today, there was a Pigeon perched on the owl... Works really well!
Had a rather surprising trip on 22600... Sounds iffy, as usual, but Went like a stabbed rat along the A596!!

Oh dear, hope they get the problem fixed quickly! Might even be there long enough for some one to get a snap or 2!
Also, F212YHG, an ex Preston Bus Lynx is now owned by Regal Busways of Chelmsford, is still in PB livery and has been seen working school contracts.

Shame about Staintons, hard times are upon us.
15683 has gone on loan to Wales, so 16653 is out on the regular 300 today. Haven't seen any other allocations, so 17017 could be out somewhere

And the example on the sales photo looks to have had its blinds set to 'Frenchwood' ironically!

Going a bit off topic again, but Reays had two Primos in Carlisle Market Place today promoting the new services.
My other half got a few shots (in the rain!), which can be seen here:

To tell the truth i couldn`t tell you.
No worries, just might have been a trick up the sleeve for when (IF!) I go to an interview for Cambridge.
Incidentally, I think Staintons have been planning to close for a while, ever since their plans for a new depot at Carnforth were rejected. All this has done is changed the timing.

Unbelievable but I'm not surprised, they have obviously realised they have taken on to much, which is what we have been saying all along. SC must be having a right laugh lol

They must have known for a while as they are not registered with VOSA, which is a legal requirement, if a route isn't registered then it can't be run. I would hope SC take the opportunity to run more services to help the workers out, because Reays have left a lot of people in the s**t.

Reays have 3 days to sort it out and SC have the same time period to set up emergency transport for working in the areas that now wont be serviced by Reays if they choose 2.
