    Good Customer Service In The Bus/Coach Industry

    Houston's of lockerby deserve a mentioned here. The quality of drivers and support from depot and back office operations that they have brought to the 100 group of services between Edinburgh Lanarkshire the Scottish borders and Dumfries has in my view made a significant difference to a root that...

    GW 769s to Scotrail?

    And I bet they will life extend them, probably because they will still need a service of all DMU fleet of some kind for even just another five years.

    National Express Coaches Discussion

    Is that a change of seating type also on these? The fact that passengers unable to manage the stairs and requiring to sit on the lower deck will not have access to a toilet is going to be instantaneously controversial and represents a backward step for National Express passengers

    Class 165 on service to Great Malvern

    I'm going to be controversial here and say that had I been a booked passenger on either of those rides to Great Malvern or indeed Exeter I would have thought that my birthday in Christmas which are only seven or so weeks apart had come early, for me personally a turbo no matter how cozy and...

    Euston station toilets in a disgusting state

    Wonder if the ones at London bridge will be refurbished once the new ones are open

    Norwich - Cambridge - Stansted future ideas

    Personally I would terminate the cross country to or three car overcrowded excuse for a service at Ely or indeed elsewhere and use its path for an additional greater Anglia Stansted service instead which not only provides more capacity but can also use all those lovely wires and therefore...

    GW 769s to Scotrail?

    I would assume that any least extension for the HST would be best used to cover for introduction of cl 158 replacement and life extension work of the b170 fleet which last time I used one were really showing their age, I where imagine that they'd be in much better condition had they not been...

    Euston station toilets in a disgusting state

    I'm afraid I have absolutely no sympathy whatsoever with the free toilet apologists here, I am so passionate about this that I believe even motorway services should charge or at least have some kind of system that ensures they are always in good condition which back in my childhood was never a...

    Euston station toilets in a disgusting state

    I'm afraid this complaint seems to be rapidly becoming relevant to all network Rail managed stations where the toilets were previously chargeable as of course I said would happen. Regarding the ones at Euston however they are long overdue a refurbishment but can't imagine this happening until...

    Scottish Citylink

    909 cuts will be unwelcome by those whose main trunk or Express service or indeed who is only service he's provided by it. The cutting back of the b919 seems also particularly ridiculous unless they plan to run summer only extras between end of may and mid-september as one coach every two hours...

    Scottish Citylink

    Wonder if this will see the Megabus brand disappear in favor of a more mid market style offering as Scottish citylink or simply citylink

    In which case idle speculation is probably both unwanted and uncalled for here

    WCRC loses judicial review in High Court

    Excuse my ignorance but I didn't think they could operate from fort William this season until they have stock that is suitably fitted

    No trains to call at Altnabreac for the foreseeable future

    Given the money that this dispute must be costing various people, were I network Rail I would be suggesting that the station be reopened and as a courtesy that we would upgrade the track to a non-classified road status with a proper tarmac surface and keep it reasonably maintained within reason...

    Potential up to 2,000 job losses at Alstom Derby

    375 would make a lot of sense, but please God do not replace the seats with ironing boards that's not going to do their marginal constituencies any favors at all

    It does and I will miss it when it finally goes
