You will need to research each route individually. There seems to be a separate agreement with each English border county. I know that from Monmouth and Chepstow the only English passes accepted are those issued by Gloucestershire.* Unless you have verified otherwise I would assume that only...

I checked the app on my phone and gave up at that point without having seen anything during the evening. This morning I saw a string of alerts for much higher geomagnetic activity during the early hours. I don't know if it produced anything visible thus far south.

I have no idea how much effort companies put into this but it should be possible to identify interchanges based on route and time taken. In the majority if cases people will board at point A and return from point B inferring a return trip from A to B. What isn't seen is mixed company journeys...

I hope so, I made the mistake of having a break from social media last night combined with missing the TV news and weather forecast. First I knew was when I checked Twitter this morning.

Most of my working life has been in offices without staff parking. I don't know if my local station car park has acquired chargers in rhe past couple of months. If not the nearest non high speed chargers are 2 in the long stay car park on the other side of the town centre. Increasingly I am...

The 84 ran all the way from the Crooked Billet in Walthamstow at one point. I think that was only on Sundays but I did do the whole trip on a Red Rover ticket as a 14 year old bus spotter

The current 275 route serves the villages along the A40 west of the Chiltern escarpment. Any diversion would leave this corridor without a bus service. It's the senic trip to Chinnor that contributes to the 275's failure as an inter-urban route. The map encourages enthusiasts, myself included...

The contract was with Red Rose until quite recently. Bucks CC publicity for buses involves clicking a link labelled "Parking Roads and Transport" on the council website.

I'll veto the suggestion of Aberystwyth, mainly because the thread title specifies England

You can drive through the North of the Borough without entering the ULEZ. South along the B175 to Havering village, left into Broxhill Road, left along Noak Hill Road and Chequers Road and back into Essex.

With a degree in historical geography I do have a good understanding of the relationship between modern political boundaries and the Domesday Book. I was referring to the boundary points ts of the ULEZ. These cut through traditional community/parish boundaries so that there are areas of Greater...

I am wondering how the boundary points were chosen. Looking where my mother lived in the North of Romford it's possible to drive from, say, Stapleford Abbotts to Brentwood through Havering and Noak Hill without touching the ULEZ. Was there local involvement or were the sensible bits just a...

Far easier to change from the 40 to the frequent mix of Arriva and Redline services at Thame. Was there ever a major flow between Wycombe and Oxford? Apart from one person being treated at the JR I can't recall meeting anybody in this part of Bucks who thought of Oxford as a "destination" by...

I was wondering about that. I have used Camden Road on a number of occasions and it was not uncommon to see a freight being held on the Primrise Hill line awaiting a path through Camden Road.

I can't remember the price of sweets at the end of that decade but as a student in 1970 I would still have change from a pint or a bag of fish and chips.

Probably the quickest route by bus/coach but you can do it for £4 each way by changing at Thame using Red Rose and Arriva or Redline.

It's a shame that you are excluding stops only served by night buses as the village of Chenies in Bucks is served only by Diamond Bus route 710 at 03:09 and 05:09

Magpie Lane in Oxford formerly had a similar name. Grape Lane in Whitby is another. Named for the trade carried on there.

I have occasionally noticed discrepancies between the local authority and Royal Mail versions of a street name

That happened in London with the introduction of postal districts.
