Bang on ! That was when. Look today at the world of. Arriva. The 62 trip arriving Middlesbrough BS at 1206 was 7401. This was to be swopped for 4505 which worked into MBS at 12 something on an X93. I can only assume one of the trips ran late as by the time the changeover was effected the 62 trip from MBS at 1214 was 20 minutes down and got further delayed as the young lady driver was having problems with Ticketer which,given we're now on a vehicle normally allocated to the X4/X93 boards was programmed accordingly. She did her best but essentially it was free rides back to Redcar!!
Then the 28/81 issue surfaces again, as discussed on another thread. Apparently come the changes and combination of these routes in March extra running and layovers are being incorporated in the timetable? It needs it! The 1500 service 28 was on the stand promptly then took a further 11 minutes to load, weave out of the Bus Station and through the crappy traffic lights at the entrance. Our driver having lost more time getting up Marton Road had clearly thrown the towel in. Imagine the frustrations of those so effected by these occurrences. Not isolated when you check in here.
