RE: Northern (Arriva Rail North)

This report highlights how Arriva run many buses in areas served by Arriva Rail North. What is ridiculous is that one government body awards Northern to Arriva, while another government body decides to investigate whether it might be anti-competitive. Talk about lack of joined-up thinking! Mind you, it was similar in the late 90s when ScotRail was awarded to National Express, who soon after were instructed to divest Scottish Citylink. |
