(24 Feb 2023, 4:04 pm)Unber43 Idk, I think some of his liveries do create "desire" I quite like the Xlines Livery and it would make me get the bus as its a nice presentation, it has some great features.I thought MG took the credit for creating the Xlines livery (or at least the concept) all by himself?
However say it was in a bad livery (e.g arriva frequenta), or it had poor seats no headrests, no features I would be less inclined to go on it. But one thing annoys be about Creative Desire is that they make some boring/ none-cared for liveries e.g Coaster, EGRider

Far too much effort went into the design for it to have come out of Best Impressions!

Some Coastliner Suggestions...Malarkey Marathons as some in the past have called them.
X40 - Leeds - Tadcaster - York Rail Station - Malton - Scarborough - Cloughton - Whitby
Limited Stop Express Service connecting key points of the route only, operating Every 1 Hour Monday to Sunday providing a reduced journey time across the whole route
840 - https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Leeds/...283113!3e0
843 - https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/Leeds/...486335!3e0
In regards to the 840/843 from Malton I'd have them do Clockwise/Anti Clockwise Loops of Pickering - Goathland - Whitby - Robin Hood's Bay - Cloughton - Scarborough - Seamer and Sherburn back to Malton returning to normal route back towards Leeds allowing connections down the North Yorkshire Coast between Whitby and Scarborough via Robin Hood's Bay which I think would vastly improve the tourism side of the service and give it a much needed money boost all round to keep commerically viable to operate, the services would also have sufficient layover time at both Whitby/Scarborough depending on direction of the loop.
Other suggestions:
Extend service 20 from Rawcliffe to Harrogate via Knaresborough which would give a more direct service to York than the 22/23 do, I would also extend services 22/23 into Harrogate from Knaresborough also

(27 Feb 2023, 8:12 pm)Storx The buses from Malton to Whitby are being scrapped soon altogether, guessing you're not aware. There's massive out roar about it. They won't be touching Whitby via the Coast with a barge pole imo.

Coastliner 840 will now continue to operate this summer: https://www.transdevbus.co.uk/coastliner...y-continue
The current £2 single fare cap seems to be doing wonders for the service, especially over the February half term holidays.

(28 Feb 2023, 12:28 pm)Andreos1 13,000 people paying £2 per fare vs a handful at £7.50 (going off the comments about saving approx £5.50 per trip).
They seem amazed that lower fares can attract punters and is just one important factor amongst many others.

(22 Feb 2023, 4:30 pm)Unber43 Also with their entirety of the Ribble Country Network being lost (18) + 5 off the 153 I wonder whats going to happen to them, a suggestion could be they replace older Mellors, and the older ones be sold.
However as transDev like to change the interior of the bus with every brand i can imagine it being a nightmare to change.

(28 Feb 2023, 12:39 pm)MurdnunoC Rumour has it that Alex Hornby is in the process of being peddled from his position at Transdev. A combination of that, lower fares, and a back to basics approach may save these services.
