WTF? - I certainly wasn't expecting that

I think somebody mentioned that the marshalls where parked up in GM, nobody said any where in service i think BBB just mis-read it. Ultralow did say this morning that 33413 was out on service in chester yesterday

Good on him I'd say, at least he is showing interest in the latest aquisitions,
anybody know what he was here for?

He's visiting all Stagecoach depots as a sort of farewell tour before he steps down as CEO.

Sir Brian visited Wigan on its first day, he likes to be around when its first day of operation, along with some of the other senior guys (e.g. Les Warnerford).

There something nice about the Head of the company looking around to see how the new operations are bedding in , hopefully local management will have got the company buses and buildings looking like they was never ever a part of that operation from Aberdeen .

Stagecoach will have their work cut out getting the Rock Ferry Geminis into acceptable internal condition. I had FZA today and it was in abysmal condition: many seats slashed, virtually every seat back burnt and etched in several places from the third row moving backwards and a number of upstairs windows etched quite severely. This is probably one of the most badly vandalised buses I've ever seen, seemingly having taken a pounding at its former base of West Yorkshire.

What I will say though is that it rode considerably better than any of the awful VLW batch of ex-London Geminis allocated to Birkenhead.
