What is the situation with Amazon?

Do they only require the likes of Arriva at certain times of the year?

Last time I discussed this, it was mentioned that someone else had the  contract at the time but Arriva got the contract at some point.

Amazon is a group of DD's that bring in the staff to the Regional Distribution Centre. It usually started about October time and finishes early Jan. We use about 6 DD's on it.

Any chance of Cannock getting a couple of spares so the 74/5 can actually run as a deckered route?

Just read a notice on 2112 saying that there is no service on Boxing Day. Are Arriva's tendered services operating? If so who is operating them?

Apparently Diamond are doing the 208/257...

Anyone know if there was summat wrong up by Lane Head earlier, as 2106 on the 326 followed the 28's route up to Mill St then turned down there to get to Lane Head TESCO

Are they DDA? My novice view would be that they have resale value because they're decent enough motors, unless Bangor need more lol.
