Why have you crossed out your last move, there was nothing wrong with it?

Technically Scotland to Northern Ireland is a domestic ferry, but whether it is within the rules...

Unfortunately, despite this being the Transport Game UK, it doesn't actually include all of the UK (cue unionist rant )

Also, what is it with you and numbers today, it's the 367 we just boarded not the 467 .

Here, we take some time to admire this wonderful village, before boarding the 17:00 DCG Coaches service 367 to Lochans, Millview Terr (no 6), arriving at 17:13 Thursday afternoon.
