One further update about the East London Bus Group, regarding Tuesday’s post (entitled Roundabouts) and Wednesday’s. No announcement then but the waiting’s over now. It’s time for the City to stand and deliver. So, expect some excitement this morning. Watch the news. If I’m wrong and I don’t think I will be, well, don’t call me a donkey but a horse-drawn carriage that formerly travelled regularly over a fixed route while carrying passengers (customers?) and parcels…

Nothing from Uncle Brian - yet
just seen it on news 24 the new owners are go ahead, bloody great :(
no stock exchange regulatory announcement from Go-Ahead, so are you sure ?
I thought no one operator was allowed 2 former London Buses subsidiaries? Go Ahead already have London General & London Central.
On a seperate note - are we talking Stagecoach or Uncle Brian himself?
I think the figure is 25% or something similar. Some of the groups are close to that, or have been in the past. This figure of course constantly changes with tender losses/gains
So who's bought it then? I can't see any confirmed news anywhere on the internet, and can't get to a television right now.
Good luck whoever it is, you're sure as hell going to need it.
on BBC news 24 earlier they were reporting live from East, East, East London saying Go Ahead biscuits were the new owners & comes in 4 different flavours. personally i prefer apple & sultana's.
O come on, when are we going to find out who or what company has bought out ELBG, ive been sitting front of the tv all day waiting for some exciting news.
Surely any announcement would be most likely early morning. Assuming that a PLC is involved, they need to make an announcement to the Stock Exchange - usually prior to that day's business commencing at 8am.
i've just been told that it won't be public until next wednesday due to the group being split into two, so pension fund may have to be divided................
My money is on Transdev for East london and Abellio for Selkent
