Stagecoach To Take Over Hertford East

With the likely sale of National Express, it seems Stagecoach are set to acquire the franchise for the NXEA network. So yet another coat of paint for our trains! How many times can a rail service be rebranded? http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/30624b06-9d94-11de-9f4a-00144feabdc0.html

Good, NXEA are awful. I was on one the other day that was still branded London Midland! made me a bit paranoid i was on the wrong train. Hopefully if the line is making a profit they can put some of that money into improving the trains or getting new ones, they are some of the worst i've ever been on. Hertford East could also do with more than one ticket machine.

I heard they're called Stagecoach because they're always being held up.
