COMMENT 🗣️ | Fen Line fiasco raises big questions - Hundreds of cancellations have hit confidence in the Fen Line. @AlexWarner5 says restoring reliability will take more than a change of ownership

Tried an electric hire car. This @PolestarCars was great but on return the car hire company charged £60 to charge from 40% to 80%… it had done 98 miles!
I’m all for electric, but to have spent £60 driving 98 miles in a Diesel vehicle would have been 11mpg (the same as my bus…)
Quick trip out from Swanage to Bournemouth and back - managed to get a photo of “The Pines Express” from Leeds as it approaches @SwanRailway today. Lots of money raised for a great cause!
A lovey surprise at @ShannonAirport today was an amazing collection of model planes, trains and automobiles which has found permanent home there!
Sorry @MrJamesMay - according to the safety card you can’t smoke on @EasternAirways
On the way home now from Galway. Despite having a dedicated coach station, most scheduled services have started leaving from the double yellows outside - drop off charges are quoted outside as €10 for 30 mins, so it’s no surprise some operators are choosing this option!
I know nothing about gardening, but a soil test kit and a book later it’s time to try it! And a bus theme, of course….
This time the @ybmanagers conference is in Cardiff. A great first day included a visit to @Cardiffbus as well as catching up with industry friends and colleagues. Looking forward to day two tomorrow.
Hi @SW_Help there’s a 22:03 train from a Bournemouth to Southampton Airport advertised on screen and journey planner which connects at SOA with 23:03 train to Waterloo. Bus Controller says there’s no 22:03 on his control sheet. Any ideas?
In a world where good news is some what hard to come by in the media, here’s a breath of fresh air from the beeb… bbc.in/3nQOPeV?fbclid=IwAR20…
One for @BusAndTrainUser. Out today on @SW_Help @IslandLineUK. Following the signposted route from the main road to Brading station (having got off @SouthernVectis bus 3) it took us to a refurbished entrance. With a locked gate. Alternative was not favourable either!
The things you stumble across when travelling from Birmingham to London. Really impressive, comfortable and really well presented @chilternrailway service through to London.

Fascinating tour of Hoeford depot and it’s 100+ year history including a power station. – at Fareham, England
After a great talk from @PaulCliftonBBC at @ybmanagers conference last evening on why the bus industry needs to shout its progress louder, great to see further encouragement on the way to breakfast this morning! #HangOnThatMightBeVictorySuite
