    GWR Class 165/166 Turbo Diagrams

    Taking one unit, 158747, Left Bristol this morning 5:30, has been to Exmouth, then to Penzance, then a return to Plymouth and back to Exeter, covering a grand total of 596 miles according to RTT. Yes, I know there's stock shortages, however for a 30-year-old piece of kit that is insane. You...

    I thought 202 was ok before it left, Exeter is still waiting for it back a year later!

    November strike action on National Rail suspended - impact on next week's service

    GWR still has a very limited service tomorrow, with no service for quite a few areas still. Also claiming 'significant disruption will last until Sunday, though I must admit I have travelled the day after a strike before and haven't found it too bad

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    It might do Stagecoach some good to have some proper competition in Exeter and on the Crediton Corridor for the first time in a long time, even though the rivals are financially supported. After Stagecoach's performance recently, I certainly know which service I would be travelling on.

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Place bets on how long it will last. I also see 7 hasn't been in traffic the last few days which is hopefully good news. Makes sense for the YJ66 Solo's to stay in Exeter though.

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    I do agree about 12. 7 Does sound quite nasty, cooling fans stuck on full whack. Hasnt packed up yet though fingers crossed. I do believe the echo's (e1 and 2) should be enviro 200 routes, it's honestly a right crush trying to squeeze into a solo sometimes

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    It is poor. Seems to always be the same few offenders as well. I don't know if 3 extra solos from the Southeast will make a lot of difference

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    This one is to be Stagecoach. Its in the PSV registrations already. https://bustimes.org/licences/PH1020951 It does look like though the number of routes requiring Solos will be increasing. With the 04's being 18 years old now and the YJ15's not being brilliantly reliable with at least two...

    Stagecoach West/South West/South Wales - Fleet News & Discussion

    Must Admit, being on one was much more welcoming than a standard E200. I found them more comfortable, and it surprised a number of passengers who are used to a Normal E200. Anyway, nice to see some investment into Exeter.

    I don't know, but it does not look like it will be soon, considering the next set is not even at Doncaster yet (as far as I know) :'(
