I think it's on the service virtually every day - anyone know what the scrolling message in the rear number box mean? It reads POLL followed by a t, then a six or seven figure number. I've happened to be behind the bus up Market Jew Street twice in recent days, including last Sunday by coincidence, and it was like that both times. Incidentally, I think that must be one of the most revolting liveries worn by a bus ever, and I've seen a few in seventy years!
Hopefully it'll look better once it receives its vinyls.
The purple fronted ones just look plain drab.
I'm glad you confirmed - after the first time I saw it I wondered whether I'd mistaken POLL for FULL which is quite possible with unclear digital lettering, but on the second occasion I was behind the bus for a good minute and there was no doubt of the word after it had come round for the sixth or seventh time!
I would actually hope it's been scrapped altogether. Just doesn't seem like a good use of funds which are supposed to reduce the cost of fares, not eliminate them altogether.
It's very professional. Hopefully this will only be a very temporary normal...
Certainly hope so, does make it easier when you are shown what to do, everyone can interpret a poster in different ways
Tridents are in sumnercourt and mainly lined up for the A5 but at moment they wont be out tomorrow (sun) but that could change
Ah right, don't think Falmouth Depot has many additional journeys compared to Summercourt, plans do seem to be quite fluid in general these days
That bus was on the U4 on Tuesday as well. Another s/d on the AI this p.m., an Atlantic Coaster one.
I know I mentioned it before, but the skirt panels on there look like they didn't receive much attention before the repaint.
Think SRs have been the most popular choice for the U4, guessing compared to most routes its not the most busiest, so a single I guess is justified, every Kernow bus I saw yesterday had only 1 person and TfCs Sprinters none, but that was after lunch on a Saturday
44952 and 44954 according to the tracker, suppose both the TfC and Kernow singles result in the same capacity as pre-lockdown anyway
TFC using a decker on at least one A5 diagram today!
They've gone one step further and are using two today looking at the tracker, possibly expecting a few people out and about enjoying the seaside destinations today?
I do personally prefer an SR to a Gemini, comfier seats and better passenger environment, USB, Next Stop announcements, they just lack the capacity when it gets busy
