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


Could be the remains of a service which ran every 1st, 3rd and 5th
Tuesday (the one on the 3rd is still extant, albeit a different route).


I suspect they might use the bus to run lots of different services such
as one on the first and third Tuesday and another on the second and
fourth Tuesday. When there are five Tuesdays in the month that bus would
just be sitting around, so they might as well do something with it. So
the bus company is being mocked for doing something eminently constructive.
