For years there used to be a once a day in each direction 360 that called at Needham Market until around 2019 and then it got scrapped. It ran Stowmarket to London in the morning peak and London to Stowmarket in the evening peak. So it meant Needham Market always got two electric trains a day.

Lakenheath to Shippea Hill and Shippea Hill to Lakenheath counts in both directions as having no direct services calling at both.

Which independent bus operator has the most amount of bus depots? Obviously the big group operators always have lots of depots but it is rare for small independent bus operators to have more than one depot. Compass Bus are a small independent and now have four depots and this is by far the...

Millbrook is electrified but has zero electric trains booked to call. The entire timetable in both directions and on all days of the week is diesel trains. Is this the only one on the network? Can anyone think of any other electrified stations with zero electric trains booked to call?

Redbridge to Totton (Southbound) actually has two trains a day. Totton to Redbridge (Northbound) has zero trains. So this one is an oddity in that you can only travel directly in one direction.

I agree the frequency could do with an increase. I have always thought that the 270/271/272/273 should all be made hourly (the 270/273 are already hourly so its just the 271/272 that need an increase from every two hours each to hourly each) which would give a combined four buses per hour...

I think an hourly (or even two hourly) 24/7 night bus running Brighton - Patcham - Pyecombe - Hassocks - Burgess Hill - Wivelsfield - Haywards Heath - Cuckfield - Balcombe - Crawley - Gatwick Airport would be perfect. This is a missed opportunity. It is a popular travel corridor and Mid Sussex...

Just to add to what others have said it is worth pointing out that the £3.00 single fare cap is valid on both the 724 and 725 buses. They both run along the Heathrow to Uxbridge to Watford route. They run hourly each and provide a combined half hourly service. So you can take either a 724 or 725...

The full list of changes for all of East Sussex have now been published on the East Sussex County Council website this morning: https://www.eastsussex.gov.uk/roads-transport/public/journeyplan/changes-to-bus-services Not that much else changing other than what was already mentioned. Big Lemon...

There are a lot more than 9 railcard types available. I count at least 24 railcards that are currently available. There may well be even more that i have missed. • 16-17 Saver (50%) (£35.00 1year) • 16-25 Railcard (33%) (£35.00 1year OR £80.00 3year) • 26-30 Railcard (33%) (£35.00 1year) •...

St Ann Without is more of a rural hamlet than a village. But it has its own St Ann Without Parish Council and is its own civil parish so i count it as a village. But my point was that it may well be the smallest place in the UK to get a 24/7 bus service. I am almost certain that it will hold the...

No not really. I have never noticed many students in the town. Lewes is a very expensive place to live. It is not the sort of place you would find student housing. The students are mostly along the Lewes Road corridor in Brighton and other parts of the city.

Brighton & Hove have confirmed the other upcoming service changes this morning: https://www.buses.co.uk/april-26 https://www.buses.co.uk/night-bus-enhancements To summarise these are the main new routes and changes that are happening: • N1 - This night bus is extended 24/7 hourly up to...

Austin has a suburban railway line called Austin Cap Metro Rail which runs from the City Centre to an area about 30 miles North of the city. https://www.capmetro.org/rail It uses diesel multiple units. This is probably the easiest train to get photos of. There are plenty of places near the...

Those old 320 and 380 services were interesting. They were very short lived. They only ran two journeys a day (both overnight) and in one direction only. But a return ticket purchased from the bus driver on the 320 or 380 was valid on Southern trains to make a return journey.

There are a lot of changes to bus services in East Sussex from next month: https://www.herstmonceuxparish.org.uk/uploads/202604-wealden-district-changes-to-bus-services.doc Currently i can only find the Wealden document. They always produce five documents (Eastbourne / Hastings / Lewes /...

The new 500 is confirmed now and 9th of May is the start date in just over a months time: https://www.herstmonceuxparish.org.uk/uploads/202604-wealden-district-changes-to-bus-services.doc It will replace the current Brighton & Hove 54 and Compass Bus 261 services which will both get withdrawn...

Bangor to Belfast ticket prices for the train are currently as follows: £6.90 - Single £8.30 - Off Peak Return (after 09:30) £11.00 - Anytime Return (before 09:30) There is also a £27.50 three day season ticket but this is only worth buying if you are travelling before 09:30 in the morning on...

Brighton & Hove and Metrobus are scrapping return tickets from next week: https://www.buses.co.uk/Fares-March https://www.metrobus.co.uk/Fares-March This is ridiculous. Why would you scrap the most useful ticket type. Every bus operator is doing this in the last few years. Arriva and First...

I have always thought that is such a stupid rule. Surely all that matters is that your passport is valid for your stay. You should even be allowed to travel on the final day of validity if you are going for a day trip. Some countries only require your passport to be valid for your stay so i have...
