What would Kent (Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells garages) get instead?

They use a different building now. I liked the old building and the process was so much more simple. The new building is really modern and has the free Balad'in bus stop right outside. The building from 2016 is still there but is now used by DFDS only. Picture shows the terminal building where...

Lothian Buses also appear to have many buses in the form of Volvo BZL DD. Warrington's Own Buses is a mainly electric fleet consisting of Volvo BZL and Volvo BZL DD.

Arriva Merseyside have a fleet of 12 67 plate BYD D9UR ADL Enviro200EV. But that appears to be all they have. They are very much still purchasing diesel buses.

Aah, see now, you go into the new terminal and check in. Then they call you to the bus when they are ready. You then drive around to the immigration building (shared with coaches and anyone that they want to check), where you get off with all your bags. You then go into the building and first...

That is what happens now. Not in the same way as it used to, admittedly. Both terminals have departure lounges, and both have cafes. It is just the process of border control and security that lets it down. Unfortunately, a lot of the issues at Dover and Calais relate to our relationship with the...

It is probably cheaper to employ someone who can sit at the check in desks when needed and do other duties in between when they are not than install any self-service desks. At Dover and Calais the reason why they say 90 minutes is purely due to the border control and the layout of the port...

So? My point is there are two main operators in England for coach travel. It was National Express and Megabus, but now it’s National Express and FlixBus. The megabus owners obviously didn’t find it financially sustainable being part of the market where there are three main operators competing...

The issue with Megabus (or any other operator trying to take part in the UK coach market) is that National Express and Flixbus together do a pretty good job, not perfect. But, is there a place for a third operator? Unless any operator can offer something different from what is currently being...

Going slightly off topic here. To be fair, I also live in Medway and they are not as bad as people make out. Yes, Arriva has its issues, but the last timetable change seems to have improved reliability. There is still a way to go, but the investment in new buses that Gillingham has seen will...

To be honest I couldn’t care less as a passenger what the staff are wearing. I want a reliable service and happy staff so in my opinion they should be able to wear whatever they want to make their work day better as long as it is clear they are staff and they are safe completing their duties.

Were people not wearing waterproof coats? It is not NRs job to keep people dry and people should have planned accordingly as the rain was forecast for most of the day including the parade. Time for people to take some accountability of their own disorganisation, although yes I accept they should...

But I suppose if there is will then crossovers could be added. Where there is will there is a way and all that!

That one doesn’t appear to but this one does. https://www.anthonys-travel.co.uk/our-fleet-for-hire/49-seat-executive-accessible-coach/

It can be early that early as they build a lot of time into the schedule to accommodate for the border in Dover. Most of the times it is needed and you can be waiting upto 90 minutes in Dover for the next ferry. I've done the journey twice a month for the last two years and it is quite possible...

It’s very easy to get refunds from FlixBus. I’ve never had an issue after using the chat function on and refunds have always been prompt.

They don’t. You don’t have to purchase a reservation and you will just be allocated a seat. If you want to choose then you pay.

I still think that people using Skype for such calls is probably a minority, whereas by mobile is definitely more likely.

To be fair, you are almost certainly a minority for using Skype to make phone calls such as to GPs.

That is true and is a downside to the Uber app and advance tickets. However the journey today would have been the same time overall. This was my journey today: 2K13 14:27 East Midlands Railway SPA to PBO 1A33 15:11 LNER PBO to KGX 9J43 16:15 Thameslink STP to LBG 1G85 16:46 Southeastern LBG...
