It appears that nobody had a finger on the pulse and Peter Shipping was running the company as a hobby and mot a business. And now after the damage has been done David is trying to turn around what's left. But as a outsider I would say it's too late in the day.

For example, Stagecoach pulling out of Kings Lynn and Fort William, First cancelling high-frequency local services in Bolton and Bury, Transdev cutting back services in Blackburn such as the X41 to Manchester and Go-Ahead closing down its Anglian operation and merging it with Konectbus. So EYMS is by no means alone and difficult decisions are probably necessary if the business is to survive. Whether these changes delay or advance the day when they need to sell up could be debated for ever, but I agree it will certainly happen in time, as nothing lasts for ever !NMcBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05494964262745285249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-979801883485328355.post-52234181488398015562018-02-25T09:55:53.190+00:002018-02-25T09:55:53.190+00:00Whole load of cancellations of Scarborough service...Whole load of cancellations of Scarborough services now on gov.uk, plus a few new registrations.

Especially as the former has no engineering facilities. Been told that there will be cuts to services too, which is backed up by the gov.UK bus registration site. I believe the 246 on Sundays will be completely axed.
