Macquarie likes the bus business too.

Stagecoach, a U.K. bus and rail operator, jumped 3.7 percent to 111 pence. Macquarie has agreed to buy the company's London bus operation for 263.5 million pounds ($482 million) to expand in the U.K.
But it's interesting that Stagecoach, who after all have a lot of experience in the bus business, would prefer to sell it off to Macquarie.
