Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
In the CMAs eyes, how Stagecoach took over (or not, as the case may be) is irrelevant.
All they're interested in is the fact that there was a transaction, the result of which is Stagecoach and JPT are no longer separate entities.

In a normal business sense its easy to see, but the extra legislation around bus services (O-licences, services registrations etc) does confuse things...

It was totally by chance that I found that picture I was looking for the reg plate on that ALX KK07 BLU though seems to have been sanded down ready for painting which could mean ot is nearly finished, seeing as though they have gone to the trouble of repairing I wonder whether or not or has been rebuilt with beachball interior?

An accident in Piccadilly bus terminus involving 19283 & 12054, 283 has damage in the area around its side destination panel and 054 is damaged around the drivers cab with the drivers side windscreen torn away.
Looks like the hybrid driver has pulled out on 283.
