There are clearly a few these still to come through (the Torpoint 70’s for example) and there are a few odd ones where TFC say no planned changes but changes have been registered. Although no details have been given it does seem that Stagecoach are making changes to the 2 2A in Saltash with some Citybus runs being re-routed to fill in the gap.
As for Plymouth City services you will see from the comments on this site that there are a few changes coming up including the 60/61, 50/51 and 27/28s at least. Hopefully more details will be available shortly!
The v1 is a schoolbus that used to be under vamooz ticketing hence its number but since capped fares it cheaper to sell the kids normal tickets
ReplyDeleteWhat routes will the new solo's go on in Torquay and Exeter when they get them
ReplyDeleteProbably existing ones that suffer from elderly unreliable Solos. Brixham 17,18 etc, Paignton Fox (which is regularly big bus as short of Solos) & Exeter also struggling for reliable Solos. Indeed even the main DD 12 across Torbay now has regular older buses on it such as Tridents & even Darts with also E200 & older E400 amongst booked newer E400 MMCs, seems no effort made now.
DeleteDartmouth 90? Or is that out of Plym?
DeleteDartmouth 90 transferred to Plymouth depot yes
DeleteRandom, but according to our fav website bustimes, minibus 350 did a few trips on the 34 this afternoon! Surely not...
ReplyDeleteAre 14 year old double deckers suitable for the X5 Oxford to Bedford route 55 miles each way and 2 and half hours each way
ReplyDelete??
Deletei mean i'm all for talking about buses, but, that has no relevance to the post, let alone the blog as a whole, slightly confused.
DeleteThe buses used are considerably newer than 14 years old, they are in the 'distance' livery and have high-backed seats. There have been capacity issues on the X5 so for some journeys double-deckers are actually quite welcome.
DeleteWhat this has to do with service changes in Cornwall though ....
X5 used to be run by the coaches that are on the Falcon now
ReplyDeleteA few are but most Falcons are the original Plymouth high mileage ones repainted into awful school bus yellow.
DeleteLooks like there's some additional changes coming to Plymouth on 30th March unless they've already been covered. TravelineSW showing some of them, including the changes from 14th April
ReplyDeleteThere are more from First South West which will appear here tomorrow and a large batch of changes coming up for Stagecoach have a fair batch of new timetables appearing from the 14th. I will try and keep things up to date as I get the details - but its a big lump of changes all at once!
ReplyDeleteOff topic, but CityBus 520 now carries a rear end only advert for Totem
