Annual expenditure will be fixed to an agreed amount, its likely to happen after April when the new financial year comes into effect.

If it was the case of a "oh it's a First Group company" then why is so much already being invested in upgrades?
Stations, HST▸ 's, Pacers...

These will have all been pre planned decisions and implemented into there business plan/ balance sheet so cost can be spread to still maximize profit as much as possible... |

Please don't talk to me about investing in stations after what they have done to Bath Spa booking hall and the removal of the travel centre. A complete waste of 400K in my opinion better spent elsewhere. |

Absolutely, If I were a First Group shareholder I'd be angry that they were spending my money on things that didn't help their business and which annoyed the customers and staff. |
