Arriva North West - St Helens Depot

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
The 19.35 10A from St Helens left at 19.48 last night, 2 minutes in front of the Stagecoach 10A, therefore taking all the passengers. Now as far as im aware, there was no need for that as the bus was sat in the layover bay for 25 minutes so it wasnt like it had come in late. Ive noticed this a lot recently. During the day they are 6 minutes apart, but Arriva leave 4/5 minutes late. Stagecoach have tackled this problem during the day by telling their driver to get on the stand 5 minutes before the departure time, but obviously this cant be done of a night as Stagecoach have their breaks up in St Helens. There seems to be a little war going on on the 10As.
