Stagecoach only withdrew from the East Midlands railway franchise because they failed to meet pension obligations... at the end of their franchise holding they handed the trains back to the leasing company and a majority of staff were taken on by Abellio East Midlands who are running the franchise now. No asset stripping took place as the assets weren't really theirs in the first place.

A flight took off from Stanstead this morning carrying nappies, baby food and bedding... clothing is not the issue, food and things we take for granted everyday. Toothpaste, sanitary products and baby products.

And from the drawings i've seen it won't ever reopen to traffic.

Sheffield Ski Village - Any Thoughts?
darylslinn replied to SFBeca's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
The negative to any redevelopment of the area is the access. The road leading in to the site has to pass under a narrow railway bridge. -
And in 12 months time they will be closing the branch stating a drop in footfall.... which considering their hours have shortened is not a surprise. Getting clever with their excuses for closing branches now are the banks. It's clever what you can do with statistics.

Next Steps Moving Forward For Old John Lewis Site

As long as the land mark building doesn't look as bland as all the new structures that have cropped up of late. The HSBC building makes me think of some European building from the 80's -
It's a fascinating cemetery in Haria.

Sheffield City Centre - The Future
darylslinn replied to sparko's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
But if Meadowhall was slap bang in the heart of the City, covering the area from the Pinstone Street frontage back up past John Lewis / Coles towards Charter Square and up Division Street, would people shop there that don't shop there now ? -
Should Kate Josephs Resign As Sheffield's Ceo?
darylslinn replied to Baron99's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I'm 100% with you Colin on this... people these days have no morals and can't stand being told what to do if it doesn't favour them. -
Sheffield City Centre - The Future
darylslinn replied to sparko's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Sheffield should have had an indoor shopping mall in the centre... look at Leeds, Manchester, Derby and even Huddersfield. They should have built from that and Meadowhall probably wouldn't have come along. Back to the 80's and the not so wild story of wanting to put a roof on the Moor... it could have worked, people would have come to shop undercover and in the warm. That is Sheffield City Centre's major flaw.
