I think because they were heavily regulated back then 
Since there was no other option their service had to be amazing or otherwise the government may have sanctioned them? 
With more competition they're hoping that maybe the market forces will drive service. 12 and 5pm...I wish that was mine, mine was 9am to 9pm  |
