Middlesbrough to Whitby is a bit long as it takes nearly an hour and half. A 156 is what it needs as is How would a 4 car 230 compare to a 4 car 150 on the st Ives branch in the summer?

So if I turn up unplanned (like if I had a mechanical problem) with my bike and their was space the guard would refuse travel even if I'd bought a ticket. This happened the other week at Thirsk and needed to get to York

There is also the NEWCASTLE to reading services to fit in

Is the through service quicker to Edinburgh or is the bus from Berwick

Swindon to westbury via Melksham Crewe to Shrewsbury stopping service Bridlington to Scarborough
