They've put a decker on the 53? I'd love to have seen that squeezing its way around Middle Leaford, especially when the Lynx's used to have to shunt at the junction of Middle Leaford and Glebe Farm Road due to the parking.

I'm not sure how they cope, as I've never done one on there, but Thandi have put an OmniDekka on the 53 in the past.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

I thought the licence was revoked from 1.1.21?

I don't think the 28A bus has ever had a working display.

I presume that this vehicle isn't Euro 6 compliant and whether it is suitable for the tender (depending on what TfWM have awarded the contract on)?

Correct.  Set out in their AQPS rules.  My pet hate!  Operators should make every effort to make sure that their destination blinds work correctly and are programmed to the correct routes.  Although, having said that, TfWM never seem to enforce all their AQPS rules, such as the fact that drivers must be in company uniform.  I'm forever seeing drivers wearing 'everyday' clothes.  What's the point in having these rules if they aren't enforced?

They have far more important things to worry about like making sure people know the 35 uses Moor Street Queensway for 20 metres.

That notice says that they renamed themselves "Thandi (Red)" in 2019. Does the title of this thread need to be changed to reflect that?

The normal buses are back on the route again. The one I saw on Monday was off to "Smithwood" as per standard.

The other one, pictured here on Google has "To Smithswood" on it. I wish they'd be consistent

Steveminor

Really!! Decker was out yesterday
