All other services seemed to have departed so after an short overnight stop we depart on the 0452 First Potteries service 37 to Hanley, Bus Station where we arrive at 0522 on Thursday morning.
Appears to be behind the times.

Is First D&B Bus a newly formed amalgamated bus company?
Why not just acknowledge the fact that it is clearly a typo and to keep the game running, as RDP has done in Post #50614.

It is quite evident it is not an amalgamation. It is an easy mistake to make as I believe both First Bus and D&G Bus both have operations on the 11. There is no need to disrupt the game when the timings are still correct.

The disruption that you stated was of what was written and none of my making, as much as the wrong quiz day being stated in a very recent posting.
The guide notes at the start of this quiz states that there is no-one to police this thread and where possible, queries should be sorted out by the thread contributors.
