53865, the new GWR Solo SR was in use on the S2 service today
After travelling around the area over the past few days, overall a positive experience, and the fact you can use the same ticket on all operators is good. Also that there are still printed timetable information readily available.
I think they need to tighten up the allocations though, it seems to be normal for some Tinners not to be on the Tinner (there was one on the 17 all day today) and blue U Lines buses on either the Tinner or the green services. The open tops are all over the place as well with a Lands End Coaster operating the L1 yesterday. I’m guessing this happens because there is technically only one depot and a load of outstations and everything has to circle through them. I’ll let it slide due to the overall positive experience but I know if it was Arriva Kernow some other industry commentators would be all over it.
It’s nice to see some of the Geminis have had an interior refurbishment as well. This is unheard of in the part of First I usually travel on.
