(13 Feb 2014, 5:44 pm)aureolin Interesting. Wonder if the 33 accepts Stagecoach Megarider tickets? Similar to how the M2/M3 ran by Arriva accept GNE tickets. If it doesn't, one would suggest that it doesn't provide value for money.

(13 Feb 2014, 5:56 pm)tyresmoke Slight difference in that being GNE normally run the M2/M3 during the day though? Stagecoach have dropped the 33 entirely and this is a tendered replacement to keep the service running. Will be interesting to see what they use as it is down for a Euro3 vehicle!

(13 Feb 2014, 6:16 pm)Tom I personally think Phoenix are taking a bit too much on!
They only have three solos, don't they? Or will the K1/K2 be operated by something else, which will interwork with the 17?

(13 Feb 2014, 6:43 pm)tyresmoke K1/K2 has a size restriction on it, nothing bigger than an M710 Solo.
I'm sure it was mentioned recently about Phoenix buying a 53 plate Solo though, so they would have 4. Let's not forget that the K1/K2 is finished by 1555 on a weekday so they wouldn't have much issue with operating the 17 (only evening/Sundays)

(13 Feb 2014, 8:12 pm)aureolin Maybe a bit of that, but I hope it helps them grow. They seem to make a good job of the routes they've got at present.

(13 Feb 2014, 8:15 pm)tyresmoke Let's not forget they're a massive company - just the bus operation may be small but they have lots of minibuses (around 30-40?) and the taxi operation is pretty huge too.
