Is all the work being run from them depots? The Lyme Regis and Axminster runs might be just as straight forward from Bridport?

Interesting fact but YS03ZKE also served on the X53 Jurassic Coast route for 1 year prior to the Scania Omnidekkas that have passed through Ensign in the same month!

They certainly have done a lot of miles, would love to know how many! Back when they started the X53 also extended from Bournemouth on selected journeys all the way through to Exeter. First journey out was around 5am, last one returning 1130pm ish. Obviously things are scaled back a bit now, but...

Over the past few days the Jurassic Coaster routes in Dorset (X51, X53, X54) have been nearly exclusively worked by single deck Streetlites & B7RLEs, with the normal branded double deckers on Weymouth town routes.

First Wessex (Dorset) has imposed a rather draconian timetable from Monday. No services at all on the following routes. Fully suspended: 3: Weymouth to Westham 4: Weymouth to Preston 8: Weymouth to Chickerell X51: Dorchester-Bridport-Lyme Regis-Axminster X53: Weymouth to Bridport X54...

Optare Solo SR 53615 has moved from Dorset to Buses of Somerset.

I would recommend the X53 from Weymouth-Axminster via the coast road rather than the X51. A lot more scenic! You could then link up with the X54 to Poole via Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.

69210-12 are still in Weymouth at the moment. 69210 was out on the X53 today between Weymouth, Bridport and Axminster. The ex-Gosport Eclipses are entering service. These are of an extremely high quality and are a good coup for Weymouth depot for Route 10 (Weymouth-Dorchester). Most have...
