I am very intrigued to see...I think the open top element was a major part of the attraction for the route, and I would have thought it was worthwhile it being specified in the tender. Undoubtedly it would make the tender cost more, but I think this would easily be received back in the extra patronage it would encourage.
Last I heard was that tree encroachment would prevent OTs west of Lynmouth and that it was proposed to run single-deckers on this section. I think First Bus only tendered for the eastern section, intending to run their OTs between Minehead and Lynmouth.
