#Stagecoach

Hi Guys,
A different sort of video here, couple of buses around West Ham, on the run in back to West Ham (WH) on the evening of Thursday the 22nd July 2021 between 7pm and 8pm.
West Ham Garage is by far the largest garage in Europe, however its not fully used by Stagecoach, Stagecoach were very much the loses of the London Olympics, as they had two garages down Waterden Road, of which West Ham replaced, however Stagecoach have lost over 50 massive routes from this garage as TFL charge too much rent for the garage, so Stagecoach lost routes down to the cost of the garage rather than bad performances, every one route not even from here had a cost to pay for this garage.
Now Stagecoach are only paying for the number of spaces they actually need and only half of the under cover area.
Stagecoach also closed down and sold of Upton Park Garage, which proved to be a bad choice as they lost the routes other than the route 330/238 that went to this garage.
Hopefully now Stagecoach are now finding there feet and back to winning races, best company I think by far in London anyhow.
PS I am aware some of the clips are a bit bleachy, really needed to do this on a non sunny day, sick of the sun, have to keep on editing the clips and spliting them to make them dark manually.
Hopefully this weekend rains and can get some decent clips.

Are there still a few old Tridents in the garage? I remember when this garage was full of them

[@TheLondonTransportDroid]

None, just 19000 7/7 bus replacement, I think Bromley Bus Prevention or what ever they call them selves are trying to get there hands on it, which I hope not, some of the vehicles, Leon Daniels deserves to have at the Brooklands Museum, rather than some of this kid twats.

why are stagecoach only aloud to use half of a garage they own 💀

[@TheLondonTransportDroid]

Because they no need to use all the garage, plus rent too expensive.
