Isn't the new contract for 7 years?

There seems to be a load of dealer white E300s floating about on the 17 just now. Legals are on a sheet of paper stuck to the window but they have fleet names on all 4 sides & the destinations work. Any idea what’s going on?
David Martin now non executive chairman of First Group resigns as a Mc Gills director
Mcgill s accounts for 2018 will be filed by end of month. Total disaster expected
Can't really get rid of Coatbridge very easily Proceeds from sale would go to Santander due to that property being a security to the bank Proves Coatbridge is owned not leased
They dont!!??What baffles me is why McGills don't accept the Daytripper, when their network covers most of Strathclyde.

At the end of the day Coatbridge just didn't work out the way they wanted to, just like Dumbarton when they took the McColl's services.Yeah it's a weird one. Don't think they've got any services left that aren't SPT tenders in Coatbridge if memory serves correct

Of course they still have some SPT services, but they have been drastically decreased over the years. It's not like the clean sweep when Henderson Travel went out of business.
Yes, they might have cleaned Monklands up for a while, sweeping up most independent operators but not for long.
The bus war with United on two routes didn't help either...and who won in the end when McGill's pulled their services?

The way McGill's are performing on some of the SPT routes they operate, particularly the 72, 166, 172, 247, 310 & 329 at the moment they might not have these for much longer, I think the company has serious maintenance issues atm going by the amount of breakdowns and the amount of hired in white buses they are operating.
Wasn't there a story going about a few years ago the Go Ahead group were offering £70 million for McGill's but the Easedale's valued the company at £100 million? They would be lucky to get anywhere near a half of that value today.
