In short, no. Whenever I've used the X74 to get to Loudwater from Slough, the weekday off peak loadings have always been good. First are currently running A4 sheet ads at bus shelters pushing their £6 day tickets offer and £20 weeklies. Locking punters in seems to be the plan.

You've got your facts wrong. Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) the heavily debt laden ($30Billion+) owner of Eurosport, bought out BT's stake in the BT Sport TV channels. BT sport was then rebranded as TNT Sport a few years ago. Earlier this year, Eurosport programming in the UK and ROI was moved to...

Or two reversals via the Dudding Hill line through north west London.

Bus travel is the most popular mode of public transport. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/national-travel-survey-2023/nts-2023-trends-in-public-transport-use-and-multi-modal-public-transport-trips#trends-in-public-transport-use

Double your walking time estimate from Richmond or Kew Bridge. I doubt you'd be able to get there in 10 minutes as you need to cross light controlled junctions walking from Kew Bridge station.

The problem was until recently if you weren't logged in (or don't have an account) on the web, X defaulted to showing your most popular post at the top, not your most recent post. That made it unsuitable for communicating alterations to the service. Now you can't see anything at all unless you...

A lot of Wokingham commuters just drive to Twyford, Maidenhead or Taplow and take the EL or GWR service from there rather than doubling back.

Making bus travel harder for the unbanked and those struggling at the fringes of society is not a good look. There are plenty of those individuals in the coastal towns where this trial is planned. I'm quite sure the local MPs will be in touch with the bus manager overseeing this trial in due course.

Stagecoach ordered the narrow body Solo SR. I don't think ADL make a narrow e200mmc variant.

The 704 will have funding from Heathrow. There hasn't been a direct service to Heathrow from Maidenhead for 3 years, much to the annoyance of anyone working there. As it's only an hourly service, I doubt two extra Flightline buses on the A4 through Langley will be an issue. TVB can adjust the...

Route 6 Maidenhead - Wexham via Slough town centre is all Streetlites (cascaded from the south coast) and thanks to AI, running at an irregular frequency between 60 and 70 minutes. When the 4 ran Maidenhead to Heathrow Central Bus station on a half hourly schedule, I'd always see people waiting...

So that's your agenda after all. Any e-bike riders feeling aggrieved should simply boycott the Tube and all other TfL services. What'll end up happening is clueless gateline staff stopping anyone with what may look like an e-bike when it just has a boxy frame.

It's a replacement for the WHSmith which was located on the south side of the old ticket hall area at Ealing Broadway. When you entered the station walking down the stairs it was on the right. There's a Sainsbury's Local just a 1 minute walk from the station, with an M&S food hall across the road.

Instead of Feltham, try Ashford (Surrey/Middlesex) station and use either London Buses route 216 or the hourly White Bus 555 to Sunbury. White Bus charge a higher non-TfL fare (fares should be listed on their website). Ashford (Surrey) is in the Contactless area and is outside the Travelcard...

The bus station hardstanding was reopened to allow use of the bus stands at the western end. The entire site has been fenced off.

Yes they are. 1741194960 I presume that there was significant need from a number of Eton Wick (RBWM) residents for the service to call at the Bishop Centre, a busy out-of-town retail park and the large Taplow Sainsburys. The route used to have an infrequent extension through to Maidenhead via...

When the GWML turns turtle, the GWR Didcots get terminated at Reading (instead of Paddington) and the EL Maidenheads get cancelled. Effective 2 tph beyond Hayes & Harlington. It should be noted that the calls at West Drayton, Hayes and Harlington and Ealing Broadway were removed from the...

Very much so. Two things have happened in the last decade that have enabled my CD collection to be as large as it is: Lots of people offloaded their CD collections to charity when they discovered streaming. Immediately after the pandemic, I was hoovering up CD albums left, right and centre for...

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the optical readers were disabled or decommissioned unless they were legally obligated to retain them. They have a vested interest in rail customers using C-Pay, it is their preferred system.

From my experience TfL rail don't offer: trains with toilets, trains with working toilets, optical e-tickets and the gate lines that can read them, luggage racks, printed timetable boards, bins on trains, the same delay repay scheme as DfT services, short notice ticket acceptance with non-tfl...
