Elephant & Castle also lost one of its two tvms

MD for both the TOC and Network Rail side of things

Dorset Community Transport's three-days-a-week route 88 leaves the public highway to serve the National Trust's Kingston Lacy house, turning round in the car park In Kent, there are also TfL and GoBus routes that serve Chartwell at weekends in the summer.

The ferry company owns a long stretch of the road to Studland - so could be a contender for longest distance travelled on a private road.

Morebus 70 terminates inside Hoburne Park Holiday Park There's also the Campsite Connect 35 which runs off the public highway within two campsites

I hadn’t realised they sell PlusBus!

The Government summer scheme is a bit messy for passengers where under 7s don't usually need a ticket, such as on Morebus: https://www.morebus.co.uk/great-british-summer-savings

Predictably the Government hasn't really got the credit for the existing fares freeze - so many responses on social media to the bus fare cap asking 'what about train fares?'

It seems likely from the mood music that tomorrow the new PM will announce the £3 fare cap will return to £2. It will be interesting to see if that is timed to follow on after the August youth scheme.

The OP's explanation is hard to follow but it seems the problem arose on the Wembley to Colchester journey (not the other way round as it might seem on first reading) Please could the OP explain in more detail the journey they made? And which train was the first to be delayed or cancelled?

Rightly or wrongly, some sites will sell a Network Railcard discounted PlusBus when the ticket is an Advance (which doesn't get a Network Railcard discount)

I didn't see the new site, but I have noticed on the 'old' site they have recently changed the way the booking fee is shown when logged out, I think probably as a result of regulatory changes to do with 'drip pricing'

Gaps at that time of day usually mean that the bus is being used for a school journey. If you look at the PDF timetable you can see that there are some non school day variations

The DfT is currently consulting on changes to BODS (Bus Services Open Data) to include cancellations and diversions: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/bus-services-act-2025-improving-information-about-local-services/bus-services-act-2025-improving-information-about-local-services

No, no changes are confirmed. So far all they have done is a survey asking what we would do if the credits weren't there. I think the current expiry date of the credits deal is 31 August. Remains to be seen what happens after that.
