Well this bus is the first bus on the 122 which is now operated by tm travel, caught this from town 15minutes ago, and there was 3 people on the bus, and 2 inpecters/drivers learning the route, te bus is a full length low floor bus, and when i caught te 122 yesterday (last day of powells bu service) the mini low floor dart got stuck at stainton where the three turns pub is, so then the bus driver went inside and shouted "oy this is a bus turning area not a fuc*ing car park" as the bus could not get past, so i just hope it isn't the same today otherwise the bus may get stuck once more, especially around braithwell, stainton and micklebring with the narrow villiage roads etc.
Nice to see tm travel doint the122 now, im sure it will be low floor all the time now, not like powells, wich decided to run a j reg dart on the 122 all las week, except yesterday when T984 OWE was on the 122.
This bus should be on the 122 all day, and i will keep you all informed over this week to let you know what buses are running and how full they are running etc, as i will be catching this every weekday morning and afternoon from now.

I caught this bus again to Maltby and the bus took the route really well, hope this will be the bus that is used for the 122 all the time now, was a bit ricky going between micklebring and braithwell but the bus handled the route well, love the layout inside, comfy seats aswell, and alos when we arrived in stainton the three turns pub road, where the bus turns around was full again, so th bus had to reverse out, good job the bus could reverse otherwise we would have being stuck, ad alltogether 6 people traveled on the bus, when i got on at the cranworth pub bus stop, their was an oap on the bus, the at gala bingo another oap got onto the bus, then in dalton man got on the bus and paid for his journey to thrybergh, the oap who got on at the bingo also got off in thrybergh, then in ravenfield common a girl got on he bus and paid 40p, then in braithwell the oap got off, and in malby the girl got off the stop before me, i got off at chadwick drive. the bus was realy powerful and handled the 122 route really well, no more slow buses on the 122 from now  Will keep an eye out on the 122 route over he next week or so and inform you all what buses are used, how many people use the service etc. |
