I have a question

on the 54 route between Friary Road and Hamstead Road (by Hamstead Hall School) is there a specific place you have to stand to get on the bus or is it a hail and ride section and the bus driver is supposed to stop wherever is safe?

There are no bus stops there, just hail and ride, as with most of the route

There is certain people who use the route regularly along underwood road, that one usually stops by the postbox at the end

Thanks Tony for the info on the Bendies. I managed to travel on 6029 and 6030 this afternoon. Both were running well.

It went back out even with a broken gearbox? By the may while onboard we (me and the driver who I know) found a 'Do Not Move' sign tucked behind the driver seat. Reason stating: 'Gearbox Problems'.
