Well, I'm not going to apologise for living in the real world, but taking the rose-tinted enthusiast glasses off, at the end of the day First is a business and therefore they have to consider the shareholders and what they want (otherwise there would be no business).
It's naive to think there won't be any future fares rises, but the advertising revenue should offset that. The only way to check whether that does would be to become a shareholder and ask the question at an AGM.

Speaking of bus adverts, can anyone remember which FSY vehicles had the Egg Money overall adverts on? IIRC there was around 5 ALX400s, including a 60 branded one.

There is a better photo of the new advert panels here - jacksbusphotos.fotopic.net/p57056926.htmlI have to say I did dislike it at first, but now after seeing it in the flesh in York at the weekend I have to say that I've changed my mind and it looks brilliant. Also stands out more, which is what the advertisement is meant to do, so thus will generate more income for CBS Outdoor and First Group. |

Yet more smoke and mirrors from First. After the Bus (that pretends it's a tram) we now have the Single Decker (that pretends it's a double decker)...  |

I've been told that First B9TL/Gemini's 37488, 37497 and 37498 have rear adverts for Spongebob Square Pants, in Yellow and Orange.

37488 was on the 20/20A on Monday. It says 'the driver is lost' on the back of 37488. Are they all the same?

Am I correct in thinking these 3 Geminis (37488, 37497 & 37498) are the first Geminis in the FSY fleet to gain overall rear adverts?
