Do Lothian and East Coast Buses currently operate any services either fully or partly with council support? If I recall, when East Coast Buses first started operating, some evening and Sunday journeys on the 113 and 124 operated with East Lothian council support but I'm not sure if this is still...
Regarding Malton depot how many buses can the depot actually hold inside? And how many buses are currently allocated to Malton just now and does anyone know what the new figure will be after the changes next week? Many thanks

Been a long time time since there was a weekday daytime link covering Calderbank to Holytown and good to see new links and journey opportunities provided by this improved service, hope it's a success

It was announced on both the McGill's West and East websites on Monday, already a bit of a backlash about it due to the number of cancellations to the Midland Bluebird services yesterday but I hope it all goes smoothly if...
Has there been issues across all depots today as the journey cancellation list is huge, over 160+ journeys cancelled? Hope things aren't going the same way as what ended up at Livingston as up until today the cancellations had been very minimal
I'm sure I read it was about some numbers being used for older buses and thus not allowing sufficient space for a sequence
I came up with the following which may be of use to people:
Volvo B7TL:
701-750. SN55
751-825. SN56
Volvo B9TL:
826-839. SK07
840-875. SN57
Both = 50
876-925. SN08...
A surprising and unexpected development indeed. Prior to seeing it was the Eve owner who approached Lothian I had thought this was maybe Lothian's way of getting back at and attempting to eat into Prentice's work after some of the bad feeling that has existed over the years, though I think...
Regarding Ratho and it's residents wanting a service to/from Edinburgh what about extending service 12 once per hour to/from Gyle Centre with council support? I know it doesn't serve the main City area but it's as near as and would be a cheaper option than a fully supported new Ratho to...
I've kind of found it strange that since the X28 was withdrawn some evening and early morning Sunday X25/X25A journeys still continue to operate through Condorrat and Mollinsburn, especially as there is no daytime Stagecoach service for these areas, is there a reason these journeys still serve...
I thought or I guess hoped McGill's may have transferred some McGill's liveried Enviro 200s or possibly Stratas to operate the remaining Livingston depot supported services. This would allow the last remnants of First liveried buses to be gone and have a kind of fresh start even if it may only...
They could order 8 or 10 new Evora's for the X7 and 106, I know it would only be an extra 8 or 9 seats but it would mean not having to change the route to accommodate deckers, and allow the B8R's to go into storage for possible future Lothian Country use?
In the main fleet they could convert...
With the new Lothian Country services starting tomorrow and Monday can additional journeys be introduced if resources are available or do they need to wait to register them? The reason I ask is I visited Livingston a few days ago and noticed how busy some of the Eastern Scottish journeys were on...
