Wonder if its revenge for West Mids sucess in the bus sector as DB are a larger player in this market than NX

Doubt it, Arriva have only won a few Centro Tenders.....

Germany is a big market for rail and I believe NX may also be looking a setting up an express coach operation by the name of Deutsche Express, now they have secured two contract wins in the country this seems the next logical move.

Probably a more profitable venture, than buying the Kidderminster and Redditch operations off First!  ::)
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

LOL.

Poor, possibly.  Deliberate - undoubtedly.

In the great British comic tradition of the post WW2 era.
Don't you start.
