1:35My word, that's clearly no longer seen as a flagship route. It used to have specially liveried DAFs and before that Green Line coaches, now look at the state of the vehicles Arriva put out on it (still, at least it's not StreetLites 😅)
Not even that. It's difficult to make a decent profit in London with TfL constantly imposing financial penalties, hence why Stagecoach got out a while ago and only returned because they bought their old companies back at a low price@@mohibj
Great to see you back thanks for the video from a w8 regular 😅
Thanks
Nice video Peter. First time since ever you’ve been to Welwyn.
Thanks, and yes indeed
Lovely I like the uno Mercedes bus ❤ and the little kid on bus was funny he was waving at you
Lol, I didn't notice that
Nice video Peter
Thanks
Nice to see the former London Country Green Line numbers / routes still going. 301 and 724 in particular.
Indeed
Glad that you got another one out! Those vehicles seem to be in rough shape. The Arriva ones could use a wash too
Definitely!

I've read that First might partner with an equity firm to buy Arriva. Maybe in areas like this but would they want to return to London?
I doubt that they would want to.
Yh they went bankrupt. With Abellio now being owned by it's British managers, does that increase its chances of being sold as well?
@@mohibj Who went bankrupt? Not First
Just inflation then?
Not even that. It's difficult to make a decent profit in London with TfL constantly imposing financial penalties, hence why Stagecoach got out a while ago and only returned because they bought their old companies back at a low price@@mohibj
