    Amusing/Unusual items taken on buses/coaches

    Yes, my mate used to occasionally take a wheeled flightcase on a bus with stage tech equipment in it. The drivers knew him, and would put the wheelchair ramp down for him to wheel it on.

    Time to rename the "BBC Studios" bus stops in Cardiff?

    Bring it up with the local authority? Another reason as to why I seldom visit this forum. Travel West Yorkshire Proboards for the win.

    Trivia: large diversions etc. compared to the thing they are diverting around

    I remember being on an Arriva Yorkshire 118 (Wakey - Leeds), and about 30 yards of road at Carr Gate junction was being resurfaced so we had to go down the M62 to the next junction and back up again to the other side of the closure. 5.2 mile diversion for a 30 yard road closure. However... no...

    Causing a nuisance by wanting to sit in a seat on a coach? I think not.

    Does anyone happen to know the identities of the three open toppers used for the Leeds United parade this afternoon? I presume they were Ensign stock?

    I'm not sure why Transdev would be remotely interested in doing that if the service is currently marginal/ loss making.

    KWVR Diesel Gala 2024

    I was on it at Oxenhope when it failed. Compressor, I believe. It took about 50 minutes for 50021 to get to Oxenhope for the rescue on a clear line. I was watching on Railcam, and saw it sat in Damems loop for about 20/25 minutes.

    I really agree with the windscreen blowers comment. They really annoy me on E400 MMCs. They're at a frequency and volume that really starts to hurt my ears.

    Transdev are getting E-Citaros for theShuttle in Keighley. The only order that hasn't been announced is the Flyer one.

    My thoughts as well. I'm not sure what the original poster meant.

    Pink buses doing Haworth runs? Have Team Pennine loaned some vehicles to Keighley?

    Music and ale trains

    I'm ok with that, I don't see it as inaccurate, outdated or insulting. Just observational. Though I know there is of course a percentage of football fans who are not alcoholic, testerone-charged tattooed loonies, and that's cool.
