Atlantic Express Transportation Corp. has asked a bankruptcy judge to approve National Express Corp.'s $11.75 million bid for its Philadelphia school district busing operations, Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review reported today. Following a Feb. 11 auction, National Express emerged with the highest offer for the Philadelphia-based assets, which include 364 buses. Should Bankruptcy Judge Sean H. Lane consent to the sale, Atlantic Express would receive $8.75 million in addition to about $3 million in assumed liabilities.
