Re: City Route 38 and X38 to Royal Hospital.
Well said Tim. Obviously the reason for this is to ensure that buses are on time for the main peak flows of the service into the city in the AM and out of the city in the PM. Bus this seems particularly cruel on those down Canterbury road, to have such large gaps in service, maybe every other journe...

Re: Solo's going to Cymru

Re: Kidderminster Depot
For the rare opportunity to see a Hybrid bus in Worcester (or indeed a bus carrying Preston fleetnames!) 30125 is on the 295 today. Currently on the 0930 ex Kidderminster.

Re: Large Rail Contract Oct 2016 - Buses on Loan
