    Not Arundel, but you're quite a bit closer now.

    ‘Travelling passenger work’

    If I've understood correctly, it's where staff will travel on trains as a passenger as part of their duty in order to position themselves for their next working, or to return to their home depot if finishing elsewhere. It's just referred to as "passing" at my TOC.

    Trivia - how many buses are still in service with a flip dot blind

    I'm pretty sure there's still a Stagecoach South ALX 400 at Aldershot depot(?) running about with flip-dot blinds. Used to appear on the route 20 (formerly KITE) between Guildford and Aldershot quite a bit.

    I believe that's slightly closer, but not there I'm afraid.

    Forgot I had a post on here, otherwise I would've offered a clue. :oops: Sorry, not there. Although you do have the correct train operator.

    ASLEF strikes 5th-8th April weekend

    Apologies if has been asked already, but does anybody know what kind of service Avanti West Coast will be operating on 8th April? I'm assuming normal timetable but with short-notice cancellations due to the overtime ban? Is a day trip from London to Birmingham likely to be doable?

    RailAir - SWR Staff Discount?

    Hi all, Just a quick question - does anybody know if SWR staff get discounted travel on the RailAir bus please? Can't find anything official on the First Rewards website, but I'm sure I once saw another SWR guard ask the driver for a "staff rate" ticket(?) Thanks in advance. :)

    Good Customer Service In The Bus/Coach Industry

    Likewise - I find it's often easier to get an answer to a query on this forum rather than actually contact the bus company yourself. One example of poor customer service which stood out to me was when I messaged a local bus company on Facebook to enquire about fares. It took almost a week for...
