And, according to Wikipedia, “ABB Ltd, formerly ASEA Brown Boveri, is a Swedish–Swiss multinational corporation headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland, operating mainly in robotics, power, heavy electrical equipment, and automation technology areas”.
Assuming the summer isn’t a wash out, I’d expect the open top services to do well
If you buy a Cornwall by Kernow or Buses of Somerset pass it can be used on any current Adventures by Bus product for the period in which it is valid.
I’d suggest it’s probably not as easy as that because the schools runs may also have schools hols variants or also have other runs off them.
From the timetables online. No change. But, the L1 is a lesure route. It also doesn't serve Ruan Minor. Instead goes to Kuggar to serve there for the holiday park. This is done on the way to the Lizard ONLY. Where as TfC head back to helston via Ruan minor etc on certain routes.
No record of 32797 or 32798, having been used, nor is there any record of 32730-23750 having been used.
No, First numbers are never reused.
33790-8 SN13 xxx, which passed to Tower Transit, and 33790-8 YX66 xxx at West of England.
I suspect the former ones were delivered direct to Tower so never appeared on First's system.
So much for it being a transport hub! Off topic, but how about the white elephant overflow car park being used by G7 protesters?
When I covered the car park shuttle, I had 42560, and it only went in with an inch or so to spare due to the road angle and gate position.
Changing the PVR upwards by 1 will cost in the region of £100k per annum.
Well if you think about it, there's an extra vehicle incurring fuel and cost of drivers as well as wear and tear. It brings no increase in frequency to make the service more attractive and means a vehicle will be on layover for longer at the termini. Unless there is a sizeable market who have been prevented from catching the bus from the hub there's unlikely to be any meaningful revenue to cover these costs.
It’s the ‘or !
And that's cheap, for a bus. I've worked in companies where the cost per vehicle per year was between £110,000 to 150,000 a year. Some of that is down to depreciation policies.
Thanks for letting me know that as I used to get the A2 from St.Erth station. I will get it from the stop on the main road instead. Seems a bit daft as quite a few people used to get the A2 after getting off the train from the Plymouth direction.
It’s a very rough guide that depends how many hours it’s working. It’s the minimum for a 6 day a week 7-7 bus
You’ve had the explanation only a few messages prior. Daft to you - £100k cost to us...
I could name the councillor whose pet project the hub was, so you can bill him direct. Maybe these matters should have been considered by Cornwall Council before they went ahead with it: I did have published a rather satirical letter about it in the local paper at the time, but recent attempts by me to reopen the subject were nobbled. To be even more of an irritant to those in power, I'd ask why, if the intention was to get more people travelling by public transport to St Ives, and given that trains are at full capacity at peak times, the T2 was never pencilled in to serve the station as well, definitely at CC expense.
