Just wondering how much the cost of purely running a single-decker bus over a double-decker bus is. I ask because of the university buses here run quite late into the night, and although one direction seems to be quite well used, the other seems to often be carrying only one or two passengers, if that. While catching one such empty bus the other day it got me thinking whether it'd be cheaper for the company to run their university-branded single-decker bus rather than one of the branded double-deckers, or whether the cost of running this late night service would be the same either way.
