When you said Fareham I had to think again! with Portsmouth having only the Hard Interchange really as a Bus Station I thought Gosport. :)

I'm going to give an open floor to anyone, on my Phone. :)

How about an entrance.

It's not my photo, but I'll credit it once guessed.
The station has been changed since the photo was taken, but that was long after deregulation.

Looks like Edinburgh before it was done up.

Used to go there a lot with Selwyns on NX.


*floor open if correct

would be nice to see a bus in the pic.

A quick statement on this:

There is NO OBLIGATION to include a bus in any picture. However, it is recommended in instances that are not clearly bus stations to avoid any potential confrontation. The hospital one from yesterday (or the day before, whichever it was) would make for a good example of this because without a bus it would not have been immediately obvious that a bus interchange exists.

(Post #1 amended accordingly.)

Sorry - the Uni Internet is playing up again. It's been AWFUL this last week, to the point that I may well complain about it!

None of those. Cheltenham may be the closest now - it is tight between it and Chippenham.

The main "long"-distance route here is unusual in that it has two different operators, one of whom uses coaches on the route whilst the other uses Volvo buses. Said route terminates at any one of three different locations to the west of this bus station, one of which is a major local centre whose name begins with N.

Aye, Chepstow be correct.

The route I referred to is the X14 between Bristol and Newport, which can also terminate at Magor and Cwmbran. It is also known for accepting both English and Welsh conecessions. (I've never tried it eastbound though; only ever from Bristol.)

I guessed the 'N' would be Newport. Open floor until I get a couple off my camera.
