Stagecoach Group announced the sale of its North American operations...
Coach USA, Coach Canada, and Megabus...

I wonder if the private equity purchaser will hold on to it, or try to "flip" it?

Here's the press release"

As of December 20, 2018, there is apparently an agreement to sell. I presume either party can cancel before the sale.

My next question is....will FirstGroup do likewise with Greyhound?
That's assuming they can find a buyer....I suppose they can probably, but at what price?
