M722-VET.First-SYT
It might be my imagination but now that First Bus has become smaller more focused and manageable it is quite a bit better than it used to be in the Barbi2 era it's worst incarnation. But it seems such a pity that people in towns and citties like Sheffield and Northampton had a brilliant bus service before they had to sell out and had to watch it slowly get run down through mismanagement. Here a former Sheffield Mainline Alexander bodied Volvo still proudly wears the old red and yellow but the bold F is a bit like it's kiss of death. It seems all the big groups suffered from indigestion whereas smaller outfits like Transdev, Rotella, and the Blazefield Group seemed much more nimble; Indeed Badgerline was pretty good before it merged with Grampian Holdings which created First.
