So with the lack of change to the 737 are we being given to believe that the current loadings are satisfactory>

Some of this starts in may rather than April so if this should have a separate thread let me know. "We have today received confirmation that: Following retendering, Rawmarsh have retained the tender for their evening journeys on service 218. Chesterfield depot have gained the Derbyshire tender for Matlock town services M1/M4. This will use one bus and run Monday to Friday only. Holbrook have also gained a Derbyshire tender, for services 73/74 (Crystal Peaks - Clowne), 75 (Clowne town service) and school service 130 (High Lane - Eckington School). This uses one bus and will run Mondays to Saturdays. The Derbyshire tenders both start on 29 May 2018 and will run initially until 27 October 2018, although they may be extended. Also, we understand that most of the Yorkshire Tiger tendered work in South Yorkshire (everything apart from the 92 to Cawthorne) is being retendered from September 2018."

For the first time yesterday I saw one with 2 passengers, this is a major improvement as previously I had only seen them with 1 or 0.

I was stunned it had 6/7 passengers on had to look twice first time I've seen one with more than 2 passengers on. Anytime I've seen them it's between 0-2 passengers.

The new timetable states that there is a 19B, yet this is absent within the timings section of the timetable. Also, several 19 services terminating at Thurcroft during the daytime.

The argument used when the X78 was routed round there about the folks on Meadowbank road was that the distance is very short works just as well in reverse. The serious parking issues that were know about were ignored as there seemed to be a desire at that time to slow down the service in order to make another route look more attractive. This even extended to the falsification of journey times on bus station departure boards. It would appear the desired effect has been achieved so normal service can resume.

One of their very few gains, having lost a lot of work this time round. The surprise is the 34 actually remaining at all.
