Expanding on this posting now that I'm on my desk top PC and not on a shaky bus using my smartphone and fiddly and more time consuming to type out things! That bloke this morning looked well cheesed off this morning after that Y6 didn't stop at the Haymarket! He put his hand out, then realised...

Just a short one from me as I'm out and on my phone. The Y6 is supposed to stop at the Haymarket. I just witnessed a bloke there putting his hand out for a Y6 but the driver didn't stop!! This driver needs educating about this service! I wouldn't be surprised if other drivers of the Y6 and 17...

Well I like(although not sure that's the right word lately) to keep in touch with what's going on in the news. I don't watch much TV news. I just usually watch the news for about 20 minutes in the morning, and then sometimes(but not always) watch a bit of the news in the evening. Otherwise I...

Some extremely worrying news breaking on The Sun this afternoon, which hasn't made it onto Sky News or BBC News yet. Putin holding a crunch meeting with his inner circle tomorrow and feared that he could go NUCLEAR in response to the Crimea Bridge bombing...

Some very worrying unnerving articles about in the online media again the last few days. I can't mention too many headlines, as the rules of these forums is that you have to copy and paste the articles here, and that would be fiddly and time consuming for me to do when I have limited time...

Yes, I've been worried and unnerved about all this for some months now, and is effecting my mental health. Since it began back in February when that evil mad Putin b*****d invaded Ukraine and seeing and reading on the news the catastrophic barbaric damage and deaths he is doing to that country...

Just a short posting from me for now. News articles now saying "Gangster Putin could wipe out West's INTERNET after attack on gas pipeline.". Now although that isn't as bad as a nuclear attack on Britain, can you imagine the effects this will have. Although we managed without any internet...

Sky News now has a headline "Russia threatening West with nuclear apocalypse" Jesus Christ. Seeing headlines like this is extremely extremely worrying. Knowing just how mad and evil that Putin is too. Don't know how much more of this I can take.

I don't generally go shopping in Sainsbury's much. But when I do go there intending to buy a few things, I look at their prices and often don't bother buying them due to their stupid prices. They're craftily frequently nudging their prices up in recent months. A 6 pack of their own brand...

Putin threatening nuclear attacks on Britain again!!! Absolute evil b*****d. How worried should we be that he'll actually do this? I would say he is mad and evil enough to do so. This is extremely extremely worryingly.

My prediction for the timetable structure for the 47 turned out to be near enough correct then. Hourly. Monday-Saturdays only, with the last services departing 7pm-ish. Though only exception being the last one of the day day departing Broadmead is at 6:10pm! Still waiting for the new 17 and...

Yes, I realised the 1842 service is due to depart 10 minutes after the 1832 to Bristol. As you say, it should get a fast high speed run until around the Swindon area and then will probably catch up with it and riding the yellows for most of the way into Bristol. Although it is scheduled to...

Now(well for the past 2 and a half years really!) that these express services have been axed and highly unlikely to ever return, it means me hunting around again the future timetables for when there are rare diverted services running "fast" along the original Great Western Mainline to/from/via...

I think it's a great great shame that these proper express services are very unlikely to ever return now. After all the fuss they made for months or years even about these new services cutting 12 minutes, 17 minutes(or however long it was) off Bristol-London journey times. Weren't these...

Also on the East Midlands Railway website it says: True, the legal requirement for social distancing was removed on 19th July. What it doesn't say, is that this was 19th July 2021/last year! It mentioning "maintaining a distance between each other or two meters will not always be possible."...

I reckon the 47 will only be every hour, Mondays-Saturdays only, with the last services of the day departing about 7pm-ish. For those in areas such as St. Paul's, Stapleton, and Oldbury Park and currently use the 5 to commute to and from work, they will be in for a shock to find out that the...

I agree, this thread shouldn't be closed yet. As you say, as soon as Covid cases rise again - even if that's only about a 2% rise, locktivists and maskivists will be straight on the case again along with the press and media with their tedious "Covid cases on the rise again", "Covid restrictions...

Ah forgot about that one! As you say though, just once a day in the mornings towards Stockwood only. Here's the timetable of 54/54A/54B from 2002. https://web.archive.org/web/20020602001313fw_/http://www.firstcityline.co.uk/tt/054frame.htm Press on the Index of Timetables link at the bottom...

Yes, at first the extension of the 17 & Y6 seems a bit bizarre. The 17 going a very long roundabout route from Keynsham-Bristol bus station! Might cause confusion for some unaware passengers! I also wonder if these services when departing Southmead Hospital toward Bristol Bus Station will run...

Full list of cuts and changes at last made public! I'm only on my phone so can't copy and paste. But the details are now on the Bristol World website. 72 not being scrapped, although the 72A is. Saturday 71 also being scrapped. Interestingly though the 17 and Y6 are being extended from...
