Exciting Blog Update: Weekly Posts Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at Various Times! 

read disclaimer

Hello everyone,

I’m thrilled to announce a new and improved update to my blog schedule! Just like the best-laid plans of bus timetables, our schedule will now feature new posts three times a week, every Monday at 9:00 AM, Wednesday at 1:00 PM, and Friday at 7:00 PM.

Why This Change?

By increasing our posting frequency, I hope to provide you with more timely and relevant content throughout the week. Whether you’re looking for insightful articles in the morning, a midweek read during your lunch break, or some evening inspiration before the weekend, my blog will be your trusty companion—almost as reliable as your favourite bus route.

What Can You Expect?

Here’s a snapshot of what’s coming up:

In-Depth Articles

Expect thorough explorations of various public transport topics. These posts will tackle industry trends, operational challenges, and innovative solutions—think of them as the “express” routes to understanding the public transport world.

Personal Stories

I’ll also share personal experiences and lessons from the daily grind of public transport. These stories are meant to be as relatable and engaging as a friendly chat with your favourite bus driver.

Ad Hoc Posts: Because Life’s Not Always on Time!

Just like your bus might occasionally show up a bit late, there will be spontaneous ad hoc posts covering timely topics, breaking news, or unexpected developments in the public transport world. These will pop up between our regular updates, keeping things fresh and relevant. Think of these as the unscheduled stops on our blog journey—always a surprise and occasionally a delight!

Scheduled Times and Content Availability

Please note that the above times are when I plan to share new content. If I don’t have something ready for you—perhaps due to unexpected research delays, ongoing industry developments requiring more time for thorough analysis, or even the occasional technical hiccup—there may not be a post. I appreciate your understanding as I strive to maintain quality over quantity.

Route Learning Log: Service 21 – Clovenstone to Royal Infirmary

By
I’ve never driven the 21, but I already know its rhythm: the sharp inhale before a narrow turn, the lull of wide suburban streets, the murmur of students crossing in Sighthill, and the quiet expectation of reaching the Royal Infirmary.  Today, it exists only in my notebook, in imagined brake lights and familiar smells of the city, as I try to memorise six sections of Edinburgh one careful corner at a time. Clovenstone to Sighthill – The Estate Escape Clovenstone’s your starting pistol, low-rise flats, stairwells, and the sound of doors shutting just as you pull up. Wester Hailes Park and Hailesland Place blend into each other with that west Edinburgh rhythm: plenty of crossing points, kids darting across the grass shortcuts, and the odd shopping trolley that’s somehow migrated half a mile from the supermarket. Murrayburn Park brings more of the same before Westside Plaza appears, part shopping centre, part social hub, part clock you can set your watch by. From there, Calder Drive s...

Learning a New Route: A Driver’s Guide to Surviving the Unknown

By
There’s a particular kind of silence on a bus when the driver’s clearly lost. It’s polite. Deafening. Forty pairs of eyes pretending not to notice as you brake-check your dignity and mutter, “Just testing the brakes, folks.” That’s the nightmare scenario. It lives rent-free in every driver’s head when learning a new route. So, how do you avoid starring in your own mid-shift navigational horror film? You plan. You cheat. You become a master of controlled blagging. And you build a route learning strategy that works with your brain, not against it. A tangled ball of earphones resting beside a neatly coiled bus route map on a plain table. Homework Comes First (Yes, Really) Before I even set foot near the driver’s seat, I treat Google Maps like a tactical battlefield. The stop list isn’t just a list, it’s a puzzle to break down. I don’t look at it as a straight A-to-B run; I chop it into zones that make sense to me. Suburban crawl, city centre free-for-all, and that last stretch where you e...

From Coast to Campus: Learning the 45 Route

By
From seaside roundabouts to leafy campuses, the 45 is a route with serious character. It cuts through city bustle, village calm, and enough student territory to fill a freshers’ fair. Here’s my homework run, so I don’t turn the first shift into a scenic mystery tour. The 45 is one of those routes that feels like three or four services stitched together. You start at the coast, with the smell of salt air and seagulls already plotting your chips, before plunging into the heart of town, dodging tourists and traffic lights. From there it snakes out through villas, sports fields, and village charm, finishing among the lecture halls and modern sprawl of Heriot-Watt. I’ve not driven it yet, this is me laying the map out in my head, due diligence before go-live, with a side order of humour to keep the roads from blurring together. Seaside Start to Abbeyhill We kick off at Marine Roundabout near Portobello, pointing the nose of the bus west. The first stretch runs along King’s Road, then sweeps...
