Yup...You get a Taxi. *coff* All the bus routes involve 1 or 2 changes,
with journey times of at least an hour.



Judging by the loadings I've seen, that's exactly what people did.
Despite the custom buses (ex-Stationlink) with 4 (or was it 6?)
wheelchair spaces, I only recall seeing a wheelchair user on board
once.

I see a couple of 705s passing the office every day, and I have never
seen more than 3 people on the bus. Usually it's empty.

However - it's a good route for a pub crawl. 8 stops across a leisurely
Saturday or Sunday afternoon...
