Its seems that school children are no longer happy about getting the older fleet members for their journeys to and from school.
I have heard of a couple of example of this, where the children have complained to their local depots about the buses they get on their school runs.* 15.20, 143 SERVICE ( COLERAINE - DUNGIVEN ) always used to get Leopards. Leopards 194 and 199 (VOI 194 /9) were often used. The children on this bus complained to LD about the fact that they got old buses and the fact that the bus was always crowded. In return LD provided Goldliner 1418 (WXI 4418) for use on this service.
* 15.20, 116 SERVICE ( COLERAINE - KILREA) Alot of complaining was done by pupils using this service last year, about over crowded buses and the types of buses that were being used. This service was always operated by CL Leopards, but Bristols were sometimes used. Since all the complains the Leopards used on this service have now been replaced with Cityliners and Tigers, and even the new Renows the odd time.
Have schools in any other area 's complained about their buses?
