Quote from: Gareth on October 02, 2024, 11:05:24 PMOr change it all to 'it's a bus on a bus route' that's what most the comments seem to be. I think the whole thread is pointless these days. Time to retire it.
These threads should've gone when Bustimes appeared and after the lockdown as it's a bus on a bus route. Hardly anything is noteworthy or of interest.

I also don't believe half the of big posts on these threads because a lot of could easily been spotted off a screen!

A Gemini on the 12/12A 13 is not noteworthy at all considering they have been on all this week. Final days or not they don't need to be  reported every single day . The point of this thread is to name something out of the ordinary so for something that's out every day is a bit pointless in my opinion

@MSU2008

once again Geminis are not noteworthy on the 12/13's. They are common same goes for the other City services. 

They don't need reporting everyday because you're spamming the forum with stuff that we already know.

I hope you've also said that to the post above mine! Neither are you!

It wouldn't be an issue if people didn't post things that are not noteworthy!

Any more of this stupidness and threads that cause arguments will all be deleted.

What some people find noteworthy is different to others.

The three moderators will decide what is inappropriate.

As vehicle types get withdrawn and fewer of them they get more noteworthy to some. Where the four Omnicitys are today is noteworthy as it should be their last day, but they are all on routes they have worked for many years

Apologies Tony, I've removed my previous comment out of courtesy

Is there some kind of diversion in town for the buses? 

yesterday I saw a 35 leave past the markets in the opposite direction to its normal route 

and today the 80 went the same way and turned left towards Hurst St direction

Interesting that the 35, went that way. Road was fully open when I was doing the 61/63 last night.
Your new favourite 61/63 late night driver 😂

Was on the 48 this morning. It was nice to see a driver stand up to a lout. Well done to the driver for refusing to move.
Shame on the passengers who moaned to the driver for leaving 20 mins late
