| Sovereign Bus & Coach Ltd was formed out of part of the operations of London Country North East (the other part being County Bus & Coach) with depots at Stevenage, St Albans and Hatfield. During the first months of 2004, the St Albans operations and vehicles along with Hatfield-based routes 365/6 to Luton were acquired by Leicester-based Centrebus. On the 23rd January 2005 the remainder of operations in Stevenage and Hatfield became part of Arriva the Shires. |
