But aren't they operating them on a 'temporary' basis? I thought January 2019.Could be tricky now that quite a few have gone to other operators who are now running them.

Under most such circumstances- if it's a new legal entity and/or O Licence, the local authority would need to re-tender.....
It’s the same legal entity. It’s the legal entity the contracts are awarded to so unimpacted
Thanks - understood. Still surprised- most local authorities would take the view that no O Licence = unable to operate = breach of contract = termination. Resulting in probably temporary cover plus then a re-tendering exercise.

But the legal entity has a continuous O Licence so your theory isn’t relevant here.
Target have been granted a 17 disc licence on the same legal entity.
Sorry I'm now confused. I thought their licence had been revoked, and they had applied for a new one? If this is the case, there is a period during which they had no O Licence....

473 looking very second hand still in London Red with white swoop on PR3 today.
Lucky that didn't happen on the ferry: that would have been another ferry out of action all day, or even longer!According to the Tamar Crossing's twitter feed a bus was leaking fuel near the bus stop by the Torpoint Ferry which had to be towed. Does anyone know what bus that was?
Plymouth Citybus have 9 more Enviro 400 City buses coming this spring for the 42/42A/42B/42C according to their Companies House report.

An anonymous comment on the Plymothian Transit website suggests these vehicles may actually be for the 50/51, although I will take that with a pinch of salt. The Companies House report merely states:
These buses will be introduced on the core route that links the City Centre to the Hospital. A route with strong passenger growth, in the growth area of the city.
