Hi @CrossCountryUK please can you consider longer trains on your Bournemouth to Birmingham route? The 14:03 from Birmingham to Reading is quite busy, Iām standing in the corridor by the doors!
I will say, credit to your train manager @CrossCountryUK who is keeping us informed of the progress of our journey, plus I managed to find a seat once we had got on, so credit where itās due.
A day out showing off a couple of Reading vehicles at @londonbusmuseum @BrooklandsMuseu today
Had a fantastic opportunity to speak at the @youngbuspros conference in Southampton today!
Thanks to highly respected journalist @PaulClifton_ and our very own delegates Richard Windley of @reading_buses and Isobel Hedley-Jones of Go Ahead Fastrack for presenting to us this morning.

Lots of work has gone into preparing everything for shuttle buses to the Newbury Show this year, with a new timetable that I created based on driver and customer feedback from the 2024 show. Hope all goes well!
The Newbury Show takes place this weekend! Weāll be running the N10 shuttle bus between Newbury Station, Newbury Wharf, Thatcham and the show to help you get there. For information and times visit: bit.ly/46ifQx3

#ShowYourStripes
A global day to share how our climate is changing. The stripes showcase a powerful visual representation of how temperatures have increased around the world.
Our single decker bus is out on UoR open day shuttles, showing the stripes to potential students.
Excited to see on the ground our special āPPā shuttle bus to the Olly Murs concert in Reading tonight, that I have organised!
I have Andrew to thank for offering me my university placement with Go South Coast from 2019-20.

Iāve been in Bournemouth for the past few days.
The news of the passing of my former employerās Managing Director, Andrew Wickham MBE, therefore was quite a shock!
I have Andrew to thank for inviting me to join GSC for my university placement year 2019-20.
RIP Andrew.
