Burnley council have bought the former Station buildings at Manchester Road to reopen for when direct services to Manchester can operate via the reinstated Todmorden curve.
The Coastliners that operate beyond Heworth have always been double deckers (and nice ones too) in my experience. Fares are expensive but North Yorkshire is true blue tory heartland doesn't provide many subsidies for transport at all so it's a very expensive part of the country to get around by...
Their German card didn't work last time they came up so I bought it for them and they gave me the money back when they got here.
Seems Virgin are missing a trick not having a way to enable you to buy tickets for other people, thinking about all those students who are skint and need parent's...

Is there any cheapish way to do this or is it going to bankrupt us?
Was thinking maybe York - London - Penzance via EC/GC & FGW on the way down and direct via AXC on...
Was it a pilot project to see how electrification could be rolled out in the North or was it the government throwing a bit of money toward one of their constituencies?
I know that it was done on the cheap meaning 225s can't draw power but if you compare the service to Skipton and Ilkley from...
First really do seem to be dropping the ball compared to Stagecoach in Sheffield who generally have better buses, cheaper fares and integration with the supertram. I avoid ever travelling on First in Sheffield if I can.
