The German Railways who also run a large fleet of about four-thousand buses is keen to expand. So far it only owns Pan Bus in Denmark and not surprisingly with Arriva's large bus and rain presence in European countries like Denmark, Portugal, and Spain as well as the UK, DB like the big French rail companies it is keen to snap up this successful but not exactly sexy British operator. For myself I would like to see Arriva go as I really dislike it's insipid colours. I suppose once it's gone though like those much derided Stagecoach stripes we will start to feel some sort of loss. Still all will not be lost as I have a nice little nest-egg of Arriva shares waiting to rise.
