Loaned in from I think Bannockburn.Was driving back into Livingston today and saw a Scania Omnidekka on the 27 is this on loan or a transfer in?
I may be in a minority, but the Omnidekkas were amongst my favourite buses we’ve had in Livingston so hoping its permanent.
Thanks. Hoping it will make an appearance on 23/X23 over next few weeks.Loaned in from I think Bannockburn.

Merging it how? The X3 goes a different route from the X35Service registrations going in today. X10/X10A have been accepted, The 29 will be retained to Bathgate. Also it looks like they're not axing the X3, but rather merging it in to the X35/X36/X37. More are going through as i type this, so i'll edit the post if anything further of interesting appears.

By having the X35/X36/X37 cover it's route?...
Also has the council paid for the daytime service to Bathgate?Bus service X35 - Falkirk - Bonnybridge - Kilsyth - Condorrat - Muirhead - Glasgow
Bus service X37 - Falkirk - Bonnybridge - Cumbernauld - Condorrat - Muirhead - Glasgow
- Minor timetable changes introduced to address punctuality.
Bus service X36 - Stirling - Denny - Cumbernauld - Condorrat – Glasgow
- This frequency on service X36 will be reduced from the current 30 minutes to 60 minutes
We're been told what the changes are.

Again they don’t go the same route as the X3 and all Glasgow changes are on hold.By having the X35/X36/X37 cover it's route?...
F29 is for certain journeys before this registration. Who knows if they paid it to go to Bathgate or not, sometimes the route text doesn't get updated on the registration for some reason.We're been told what the changes are.

Didn’t think the current x35 had 2 registered just for the Cumbernauld to Glasgow journey so why now . Is that normal ? As one is part supported and the Cumbernauld to Glasgow isn’t
The council already pays for evening and sunday service so I think that bit is safe.F29 is for certain journeys before this registration. Who knows if they paid it to go to Bathgate or not, sometimes the route text doesn't get updated on the registration for some reason.
Could be that or they're starting peak ones from there and it's for that or a Sunday service from there. First time I've noticed 2 different registrations for the same service though. I'm guessing we will find out soon enough what they've done to it

Its the Saturday only one. Ie the early morning runs paid for SPT around 7 and 8am.
I checked the CSV file and the second X35 is for Saturdays only.

None of them are First Midland Bluebird routes so why mention it on this thread? Or perhaps this thread should be given the name First Midland Bluebird and Scotland East instead.Some new changes on VOSA for West Lothian services guys

I suggested before renaming this thread but the original poster refused to change it.I've never seen a thread specifically for West Lothian tbh

"First Scotland East Survival" would be a better name for this thread given that FSE is not only the legal name for the West Lothian services but also the collective name for the whole division. Whereas Midland Bluebird is just the legal name for the Falkirk/Stirling/Balfron opcos.
And for some reason the tickets on Midland Bluebird services print out as First Scotland East, so do contactless transactions. Never really got that one."First Scotland East Survival" would be a better name for this thread given that FSE is not only the legal name for the West Lothian services but also the collective name for the whole division.
