    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    I am not sure the hourly service picture is for this route? Something else perhaps?

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Yes I noticed he snook Devon in quietly in between Somerset and Cornwall... where it naturally fits of course!

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Yeah think that is inevitable especially on the more rural services. Let's hope to a more normal summer!

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    I just mean bigger than what I imagine is a one or two day operation and not a frequent service. I am looking forward to seeing this '82' as it was a shame when they pulled it before but am surprised by February start!

    Just a hunch

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Yeah I would think the new identity will be for something much bigger than this but will have to wait and see. I wait for timetables for this one though as I liked the old 82 in FDC times

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Is it a daily service or weekly? I assume this is the start of First over the Tamar?

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Ah so it is a return of the tranmoor link 82? A start for First in Devon I suppose!

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Probably not on there as not a legal base I would think. I thought that with regards to Dartmouth but from report it did seem to indicate the operation in area wouldn't be viable without it

    Stagecoach South West - Fleet News & Discussion

    Seen on Devon Live that Stagecoach have been refused retrospective planning permission for depot on land they currently use for base at Stoke Fleming in the South Hams. It was noted by several councillors that indications had been made that if permission not granted it may not be viable for...

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Funny you should say that but now you mention it I have seen First buses several times in past few weeks on Tavistock Road, Derriford / Crownhill area of Plymouth, just assumed it was for contract work but actually this has been in college holiday time so couldn't have been. Also it has been...

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    I could guess all day on that but it will be nice to have First back in Plymouth. There definitely is nit enough room for 3 operators in the city though

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    No problem that is fair enough and you need to be careful what you say as you don't want to upset your new employer before you start! It will be interesting to see how this pans out from April then. I am 9nly guessing at April (seems logical) good luck and thanks

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Thanks Baz01. Like I say I feel it is workable for a now much more efficient and well run First. I Feel it will not be competitive as it was before as long as Citybus (Go Ahead) keep it that way. Both companies will not want to go down that road again i would say! Stagecoach only have few...

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    Thanks for confirming. I knew what I saying was correct I have had several good sources tell me this I suspect they may just take over the few Stagecoach routes 8n the area maybe No competition!! Route learning for April start i would suggest? Is it commercial routes do you know...
