Default Drivers telling passengers to use the emergency buttons...

In the second case (East Midlands Parkway to Nottingham bustitution) I
don't see why it would be unreasonable to have the bus stop at the same
limited number of places as the old "Skylink" bus to the airport. Those
were presumably chosen for a reason. As it happens, one of those was
near my house.


As I recall your comments on the Skylink service it was no use at all
so hardly makes a good precedent.


The problem with the Skylink service was that it didn't have a stop at
East Midlands Parkway station. Apart from that, it was a useful route
that I used several times. It ran almost round the clock, which is more
than one can say for the railways.
