That's logical - except that the X30 isn't hourly, it is about every hour and five minutes, each bus getting a round trip in about 3 and a quarter hours. This is due to running times being extended over the years. If the X30 and 360 were interworked then this issue would migrate to the 360 as...

Things have improved dramatically since my previous post (with which this may be merged - this is now 18 March). 18 of 24 Scanias working today, 3 of the others worked yesterday so probably routine maintenance and only three off for longer - 2 early March and 80219 has been off for 6 months...

Thanks for another interesting report. Please don't stop travelling or reporting on it! A lovely part of the country and, in places, interesting bus-wise. I've been to most places and routes you visited, as I suspect you have previously too. The 118 is a superb route across western Dartmoor...

It’s got to be more than this. Just 13 out of 24 in service this morning and the 850 seems to be bearing the brunt of it. Only one of the four Henley shorts boards running which will have caused issues for college students and, with delays at the Reading end, big gaps. Resourcefully, yesterday...

Sadly not - not been out yet this year. Last week would have been good but was otherwise occupied.

I was in Harrogate last week - not bus related - but observed some things around and about. First day there was an E400 electric broken down near our hotel, an hour later it was taken away on suspended tow and hasn't been out since. It hadn't been out for 2 or 3 hours and was only a couple of...

Reliability seems to have dropped off recently here with quite a lot of the Scanias off the road and road works affecting the 1 group of services. Two boards missing on the 850, one on the 1A and one on the 33 at least. This is despite two Streetdecks having appeared recently, although one of...

I saw a single decker in Fastway blue colours that I am pretty sure was a hydrogen one heading north under its own power on the M40 on Friday. Hopefully there is a plan to fix them.

Typo for Abernethy?

Looks like there are a number of changes in Devon from 5 April. https://www.traveldevon.info/bus/latest-news-service-updates/ Highlights: 7 runs through to Dartmouth in place of 92 52 diverted via Aylesbeare to replace Greenslades 356 85 split into 84 (south of Holsworthy) and 85 north of...

And on that timetable there is a row at the top entitled depot code. For six in every ten journeys this is BH, for the other four it is MH. So Marlborough Street is taking on 40% of the service going forward, including one of the two overnight boards. So that was the problem - only the Bath...

This timetable on the X39 must be the most grotesque abomination produced by First so far! The route has a 2hr 30min round trip time and there is a reduction from 10 buses (every 15 minutes) to just 6. And they run at intervals of 15, 15, 30, 15, 30, 45 with the 45 minute gap reappearing every...

It appears the mysterious 559 is a positioning journey back towards Kendal for the 509, while I guess the morning journey just runs empty to Keswick for this. The summer times start from 23 March which is good news, the timetable I downloaded for the 77/77A/77C suggesting weekends only until...

Summer details and timetables now available on the Stagecoach website https://www.stagecoachbus.com/service-updates/serviceupdatesarticle?SituationId=ID-23/02/2026-14:07:26:850

There is nothing official on the Lake District plans for the summer but a look at the timetables for the 77/A/C on Stagecoach's own website appears to show that: 77 and 77A will run at weekends from 23 March to 1 November, roughly two hourly 77 and 77A will run Monday to Friday only between 26...

A couple of interesting reports. Good to see @TheGrandWazoo out and travelling so early in the year. I'm afraid I need better weather! Some obscure routes in Bristol that I was not aware of, not sure they will all still exist for long, I certainly can't see the point of the 77. I agree the X5 to...

At Mousehole I am 100% with Go Cornwall on this. They have not withdrawn anything, First withdrew all their services. This gave Go Cornwall and everyone else an opportunity to register whatever they wanted in the area, but no obligation to do anything. Go Cornwall registered what they wanted to...

I’m pleased to see someone on this forum defending the AI scheduling because it is always best to hear both sides of a story. But I think it is dreadful and has been applied without anyone stepping in and employing common sense. I will just give two examples. First Potteries 38 and 38A from...

This M40/X74 is a very interesting development! On Slough to Uxbridge, is this supposed to add to the mix or to replace the existing service 3? The 3 is timed at Slough, arrive and depart, at the same times as the new X74 shows, arrive 04/05 and 34/35, depart 05 and 35. The existing 3...
