Bus usage won't be encouraged if the information supplied doesn't improve. I tried to check bus times from Rosudgeon to Penzance this afternoon for my wife on trunk route 2 of First Kernow. The online timetable gave details of two possibly suitable bus times, but it was obvious to me that in practice only one of the times was applicable for schooldays, the other being for non-schooldays, but how to differentiate, given neither was signalled as such and neither actually seemed to serve any schools directly, particularly as both would complete their journeys before schools were out. The difference at Rosudgeon, on a main road without a shelter in the middle of winter, was 15 minutes.
I then went to Travelline South West which required me to type in route number, company operating the route and the place of departure. First was no good, it offered me First Leicester and First in Essex etc (both deeply involved in bus operation in the SW of course!) but, even when I'd added the magic word Kernow, it refused to acknowledge there was such a place as Rosudgeon, even though it's a timing point on said 2. Just for a laugh, I tried Helston, knowing the bus would be coming from there, but again Travelline knew that such a place only existed in folklore so could not supply details.
Eventually on the Cornwall Council website I typed in Rosudgeon, was offered four different stops, and was able to get details of all the buses that afternoon, which did not include the phantom journey on the 2, which was the later one. And the result? My wife was kindly offered a lift by her friend, partly to put her mind at rest and also because it began raining.
Which all goes to show that bus travel might be seen as either for the intrepid or those who have no other choice, which is rather a sorry state of affairs. My wife does not share my enthusiasm for buses, and why should she?
