So was this a BBC archive piece, or recent?


From today. Here are his pieces in the Independent:


http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-another-bus-i
n-a-month-or-so-2260119.html

http://www.independent.co.uk/travel/...lder-in-search

-of-britains-most-exclusive-bus-2259314.html

And he didn't really get the bus service story right either as there are
two versions of the W13 bus serving Milton Keynes and local villages.
One version runs more frequently that his 4 times a year version. I'd
always assumed Mr Calder concentrated on facts - it would seem I was
wrong.


But why would any bus journey variant only run on the fifth Tuesday of a
month? Seems utterly perverse.
