In case anyone has missed it, this stupid thing is going to open next month.
First have been publicising a raft of changes they are planning to make upon the route's opening, available here. Apparently there will be "new Eclipse E1 and E2 routes [which] will be operated by brand new high specification buses with free on board wi-fi, leather seating, extra leg room, and real time information including audible and visual next stop displays".
Methinks the name "Eclipse" is deliberate
Let us hope this thing is worth it, unlike Cambridge's Mis-Guided one.
Of course we will all say that reopening the railway would be have a better option, and we will almost certainly be proven correct. However, if the route is at least mdoerately successful, they will be able to justify it, even if our idea is better...
