If you recall we tried the X98 via Bromyard last year? Well that didn’t work out so it was dropped for this year. However, the original idea for that was to run the bus via Great Malvern and Ledbury into Hereford over the old X91 route. That didn’t happen for two reasons... Firstly, both of those to...

I know Mick Mansfield and one other driver has some Rail, but I don't know what days or routes. I'll be taking forum member "Red Midland" to Hay with me in the morning so he can refresh his memory on the route. He will then be replacing Mick on the evening Hay services to free him up for the Rail. S...

Looking at the running boards... One will depart Crowngate on the 0940 Service X99 (me driving) and the other will work the 0750 Service 365 from Link Top to Hanley School, followed by the 0900 Service 44 from Barnards Green to Crowngate. It will then park up for just over an hour before working the...

35189 and 35191. Both have been to Worcester before. They will only be with us while the schools are still in, and are scheduled to return to Leicester on Sunday.

67665 has transferred to Potteries this morning. I must say I was a little disappointed in hearing this news as it is normally my vehicle of choice when operating the single-deck working of the Hay Festival on the first Thursday and Friday, and the last Monday. On trying to secure a nice green Volvo...

Seems to be a general lack of information all round about it this year. It’s almost like the company has forgotten it’s running.

First have given me the dates for the 144 events being held in June 2018, to launch the new branding.

...I'm intrigued that Gloucester is being served before Cheltenham.

Cheaper parking in Cheltenham.

So, as mentioned elsewhere on this forum, Worcester will be running a couple of excursions during the school summer holidays. All the necessary paperwork has been sent away to the relevant authorities so I can now give out a few more details.... There will be two routes operated, Service E1 and Serv...
