You also have to bear in mind that it may not also be financially viable for a depot to take an emergency contract on as you still have running costs to factor in.

SC had about 4/5 deckers + bluebirds for the Tarvin High Schools as GHA dropped them. Trident and Enviro400 need to come off 51/53 really. They are used on schools then do 51/53 in the day and sometimes at night they are on after schools. SC could simply run it commercially as GHA must have some sort of profit off 36 as they ran it commercial. SC run commercial and get money. People are desperate for a bus service so will pay little bit more in the short term!
