The nail in EWS coffin was when it seemed to believe it could win contracts by just submitting a bid. It failed to take account of changing times and other operators. The loss of the Royal Mail contract was, in all fairness, probably not it's fault but I believe EWS thought it would be the preffered bidder all the time, and that was never likely to be the case for long.
