Not as significantly as you might imagine. Supertravel ceased trading and hence lost the contract and Cumfybus only had a year-long emergency tender.

The remains of dart 721 V561JBH were removed from Ace Travels depot yesterday and taken to a local scrapyard for final breaking only the bodyshell remained of this bus as it was stripped by Ace for spares after suffering an engine fire. RIP 721. |

As I've already said elsewhere on this forum, I'm hoping that this will be the end of the funny business on these services. View my new Flickr  Updated!

RE: ACE Travel
It all depends if ACE bid for the contract afterwards, as I am sure, and I would imagine someone can confirm this, that ACE will only have the contract for a year on a emergency basis? |
