RE: First Group Speculation
I can't see anyone buying Wigan as the network there would need to be totally recast and the victor would probably have to also buy out SLT to be able to get any sort of stability on Wigan locals, what is probably more likely is that Wigan will close at Christmas, the locals would be abandoned along with perhaps the 598 and everythinge lse moved into Bolton or Manchester depots the 600 being interworked with the 582. However I've also heard that its the site at Bryn that has magniffied the losses and that First have another sceme in mind to keep a smaller depot at Ince which would be a reopenning of the School Bus unit and Bryn would then close, Ince would be an outstation of Bolton used mainly for schools plus 600's and 32's plus a small amount of local work that might be able to be retained but using drivers on lower wages and smaller vehicles as an SOU eg Optare Solo's cascaded from elsewhere. |
