224 is away home to Northern Ireland by the looks of it. Currently tracking at the Stena Line Terminal at Cairnryan. Presumably bound for Ballymena?

I can’t speak for the other companies on it, but good luck finding an inaccuracy on the Lothian page. It’s about as accurate as it gets!

Where does it say this? I have Bus Times open in front of me and the only edit close to what you’re referring to is a disapproved edit to 24.

I think you’ve forgotten that the 63 is a subsidised route though. As such there’s only a requirement to run the service to the subsidy requirements. Anything above and beyond this in terms of routing, frequency and hours of operation normally falls into the commercial arm. The overall subsidy...

For now though, but I can’t see it being long before the fares are integrated together. It requires Eve’s though to be brought up to Lothian spec internally as well which will take time.

I guess that’s the issue though. Good luck finding any spare Turbostars. ScotRail cut their nose off and released too many meaning they’re now having to open a new line with just an hourly service. EMR as we all know seem to have gone Turbostar mad. XC, Northern and Southern would likely all...

A small number of the Special Schools and Roman Catholic Schools have coach transport from areas that are further away. AAA Coaches have been the councils main source of coaches for at least a couple of decades now, which includes private hires to events etc. I imagine only schools in the far...

I believe it’s the same article that’s been given to a few places. The author has since deleted it all.

I’m hearing there’s an article going about saying that the 4 bids above are actually the winning bids. I haven’t seen it to confirm but if true I wonder which operators have bid for what?

I bet though it’s the classic moaning from the people that use it maybe a couple of times a month at a push. Time and time again a fair few of us have said there’s no point keeping it from Hanover Street to Lochend as it’s normally a fresh air bus, but the council caved in to a few moaners.

I wonder who the mystery 5th bidder is then? According to the link it says 5 bids received, but only 4 are listed. I would assume it’s Edinburgh Coach Lines? I can’t really understand why Borders Buses have bid, but I guess nothing is too far fetched.

Taking from what little I know about railway recruitment processes. If you’ve made it through to the next stage, then at the moment hearing nothing is probably a good thing if you’re in that scenario. Traditionally they’ll inform the unsuccessful first, then the ones that meet the grade but only...

I think with regards to the 12, there’s simply no alternative option. As annoying as that is, this just proves how vital a junction Cameron Toll actually is at feeding and receiving traffic.

The 39 proposal here seems like the sensible outcome, similar to what a few had suggested before. It will be interesting to see what the reaction is if this gets the go ahead though.

I disagree. I think if you tick every single number 1 answer they would want that could be a red flag. It’s finding the sweet spot of picking mostly 1’s and 2’s.
