Does this not break the rules as D&G and High Peak are both Centrebus Group? If smaller groups are allowed (Centrebus, Wellglade etc.), then you could certainly start from Leicester and use the Skylink (Kinchbus) to Derby then the Comet (trentbarton) to Chesterfield. Even an Arriva service from...

Do trentbarton still have someone at Derby Bus Station selling tickets for the Red Arrow? They certainly did when I used to commute between Derby and Nottingham by bus but that’s going back a fair few years now.

For anyone wanting to see the X38 (xprss38) rebrand in the flesh, trentbarton are showing them off in Derby Market Place on Saturday. Screenshot attached for those without access to Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1Js1cogQoD/?mibextid=wwXIfr

As I already said, it will not be recorded on the PNC and as @skyhigh says above, it will not show on DBS checks. TfL considers the matter closed by issuing you a written warning.

No, it won't show on the PNC.

I appreciate that it's a different beast to the railways, but at my airline we're very much encouraged to tell passengers in times of disruption if we don't have an answer for something but to give them an estimate on when we will have an answer. We are however dealing with much smaller numbers...

Ah thanks for that! I didn't realise that had changed! All I noticed is that the larger tickets just looked slightly different :lol:

Hopefully, I can give you a few answers! I'm afraid I'm unable to help on question 3, though, as I've never been to Prato. 1 - They don't have to be validated, that is correct. There is no benefit in terms of cost to buying through the FS app. 2 - Tickets bought through the app must be used on...

Around a year ago, I travelled on an evening EMR service from Matlock to Derby and the guard came down the train just before departure asking everyone where they were getting off (there was only a handful of us on the train mind - and I’m fairly certain everyone was getting off in Derby and no...

In a similar vein to yourself - not rail but still customer facing for an airline. I’ve had more abuse in the last year than ever before at work. It’s a shame to see/hear that it seems no different for railway staff (and of course the industry that you work in). Imagine the difference it could...

Noticed today that a statue of Miles has been placed out front of Derby station, right in front of the doors. Can’t help but feel like that thing looks like it’s some sort of bouncer at a club telling you you’re not coming in because you’ve had a few too many. Perhaps trying to discourage people...

Take a guess from my username:lol:

I'd be inclined to agree with absolutely all of these plus the addition of TPE 185s under 'Worthy of the label'.

Of course, I'm open to being corrected if I'm wrong, but I *believe* the pink Oyster readers are for passengers making a connection on a journey that has avoided zone 1 on a journey where going through zone 1 would be the most direct route so they don't get charged the higher fare.

I think something similar to Prima on Italo would be good for a product positioned in between standard and first class. https://www.italotreno.it/en/the-train
