Looks like we have! Though I'm not sure if they read my opening gambit correctly when they suggest we (or is it I?) haven't read there's. Oh well. :| I think we could just stick to numbers or perhaps an initial character to denote the service type; B - bus, C, long distance coach, R - heavy...

Thinking about rail mags my local library (Winchester) gets Rail & Modern Railways, to list a few (plus back editions) which saves me having to go buy them, saving a good few quid. :) But then that's probably because it houses the Hampshire railway collection, with lots of books and DVD's...

I meant to reply to Qwerty133 at #7 - sorry. :oops:

In no perticular order and off the top of my head - so there may be additions. Wymas Bay Moor Street Ryde Pier Head Temple Meads Marylebone Middlesborugh York Lewes
