RE: Jim Hughes of Sunderland/Birtley - Andreos1 - 25 Mar 2015
No idea where it was going, but I passed a JH President on the A1 at Wetherby earlier.
Seemed to be going canny too. Certainly didn't look to be struggling.

If you read elsewhere in the forum, you will know where I think an additional stop should be... :p
Hopefully it comes off for you and hopefully the service is used locally too - not just for distance stuff.

Looks great, hope it goes well! Any ideas as to what will be used on it out of interest? Might start using it from Chester-le-Street to Durham quite regularly.

Would anyone like a desktop picture for your computer???
Here are two examples we are using in the depot at the moment
RE: Jim Hughes of Sunderland/Birtley - Adrian - 28 Apr 2015
The Blackpool timetable looks great. Quicker than the train, and half the price.
