Does anybody know how long it takes on services X20/20 from Newcastle - Amble, and how much would it cost?

Many, many years ago, Jaguar ran 2.4 litre and 3.4 litre cars in convoy and the 3.4 litre one returned better fuel economy, so it can be that a larger engine with higher gearing can use less fuel that a smaller engine one with lower gearing.

Yeah technically it should have been especially at haughton church, but when the old 6B used to go round there, it was either the 40xx dafs, 16xx darts, or even the occasional decker that used to operate it, I had it as my ride to asda but just as I was about to get a photo 1405 pulled away

Anybody play it...

Just got back into it recently after not playing it since TS2012...

I like the Scenario Editor and slowly getting to grips with it...

Messing about making some Malarkey Scenarios

Named in honour of our very own Mr Malarkey...Some of my creations are marathons lol...

A new one I've not seen reported for these is tri-axle Setra RN06AXK

Does anybody know when the Lothian buses open day this year will be?
Thanks,

Hi all,

As bus rallies/events have started to be discussed quite regularly, and these posts have been dotted around the forum in various places, I have created a dedicated sub-forum where all discussion relating to these events can be made.

It is placed fairly close to the top of the forum so that more people see it.

A thread per rally would work best in my opinion, and the first post should be used to detail the event's date and location. Posts that follow can discuss any vehicles attending, links to photographs, etc.

Just something I've been thinking of is perhaps maybe creating a second Flickr account or another sort of website where I may take random photos and upload them.

I am thinking about maybe just taking photos of random stuff I see while I am out and about or anything else. Some things may include: dogs, graffiti, amusing signs and then possibly stuff like: landmarks and great scenic shots.

If I do decide to create such thing I doubt it will ever be something I will ever take seriously, it will be me just uploading things for fun which some people may get the joy of seeing.

Would anyone on here potentially be interested in seeing this happen?
