Why do I sense a upcoming election
And one they assume Boris's dithering has already lost them?

Actually they appear to be running from 1st March, unless they just haven't got round to  cancelling them.

Sounds to me as someone's pet scheme which will be implemented come what may - look at the farce with connecting the Coventry corridor rail services across Birmingham, which thirty seconds' perusal of timekeeping statistics would have shown wasn't going to work.

Extra school time trains from Snow Hill re-instated from 8th March.

I hope these haven't been released by D&G on the expectation of replacements from Centrebus when normal services resume?

London Overground refused a FoI request for diagrams and working timetables on the grounds of danger to staff travelling to and from depots in night hours - rather ludicrous given that Network Rail issue the Working Timetables online!

In what must presumably delayed publication ever this weeks N&P has the registration of route DA3 from October 2014!
.
On line it says the registration was received the day before it began?

It seems rather odd to say showing both end points is to be avoided - I would have thought it should be specifically banned.

According to bustimes they did operate for D&G as 183/5 before moving here.
184 FJ06ZTF doesn't appear on there - is it expected here as 24?

A 1997 episode of Dalziel and Pascoe currently on Drama featured Scania H639VNW passing Walsall Town Hall. G644 gives it from First Glasgow 1/08!
.
A previous episode featured a Yorkshire Traction Metrobus together with a Metro bus stop flag, so I assumed they had gone to Yorkshire for location establishing shots, but clearly not in this case.

Although it doesn't actually say so, the planning application seems to suggest that coaches (and presumably delivery vehicles) will be able to arrive via Corn Street and leave via Railway Drive.

Perhaps some consideration being given to a joint venture in connection with the "electric bus town"?
