I fully agree. It's not good but some companies do it. With their private hire fleet being so well used, I would say they are going in high on contracts to make it up. Look at all the rail replacement that they did. I'm guessing they are still doing some. If they can charge enough so that it covers the fleet sitting around for half the week, maybe that is how they do well.

Can't see the AMA1 any more, which ran from Liverpool to Omega, has that ended?

I would assume this was removed from the site due to Amazon. All Amazon buses no longer show up on companies sites. NXWM don't show the Rugeley buses. Howard's don't show Warrington. The Manchester Airport -amazon shuttle doesnt have any timetable. I would say that this is all at the request of Amazon.
