Go West Midlands〔(Companies House extract company no 2490584 ) Go West Midlands Limited formerly The Birmingham Omnibus Company Limited〕 was a bus company in the West Midlands. It was a subsidiary of the Go-Ahead Group in March 2006. ==History== On 2 December 2005, the Go-Ahead Group purchased Diamond Bus〔〔(Acquisition of Birmingham Passenger Transport Services Limited ) Go-Ahead Group 2 December 2005〕 and in February 2006 Probus Management〔(Companies House extract company no 4384063 ) Probus Management Limited〕 (trading as People's Express) with over 100 vehicles and merged the two companies to form Go West Midlands.〔(Acquisition of the Business and Assets of Probus Management Limited ) Go-Ahead Group 22 February 2006〕〔(Diamond Bus ) Reddibus〕 In 2006, Diamond relaunched its image, by increasing its frequency on route 16, which basically matched that of Travel West Midlands and increased its frequencies on routes 17, 63, 64, 74 and 87. However, in November 2007, Diamond withdrew its services on routes 17 and 63 and majorly altered its operations on routes 74 and 87 (cutting parts of the route off completely). Diamond also lost many Centro and Staffordshire County Council contracts to other operators. In March 2008, Go West Midlands was sold to Rotala and rebranded as Diamond Bus.〔(Disposal of Go West Midlands ) Go-Ahead Group 3 March 2008〕〔(Diamond Bus Ltd ) Rotala〕〔(Go-Ahead sells West Midlands unit ) ''Bus & Coach Professional'' 11 March 2008〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Go West Midlands」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
