End of an era

The blog which started it all is coming to a close.

Firstly I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has read and contributed to this blog over the last couple of years. It is with some sadness I make this announcement. This blog has inspired many others to start blogging and I wish them every success. It will remain online as an archive for people to refer to.

There are many reasons why this blog is ending. The first is it has served its purpose. It was created for me to post observations and general musings. The main theme was FEC's X2 route, however I use this less than once a month now so do no observe what is going on. I rarely see any buses other than Anglian ones doing light runs. I spend more of my life on the train now. I also have little free time with working, family life, looking for a proper job and all those little things which need doing. I also am part of the Admin team on Anglia and Thames Valley Bus Forum so have chosen to devote my “bus time” to this. I encourage readers who are not already to come and join us.

Thank you once again for reading.

Best wishes,
Sam

ALLIANCE OF EAST OF ENGLAND BUS BLOGS

It has been brought to our attention that a small number of bus company employees have expressed an intolerance to the blogs we write for various personal reasons. Whilst we have no intention of upsetting bus company staff, we remind them that they operate within a public domain, providing a public service, and that as yet, taking photographs of buses is not an illegal activity, even though some drivers may fear it is an infringement of their civil liberties. Similarly, noting vehicle numbers, duties etc etc is of interest to the majority of our readers and despite a certain amount of unjustified intimidation we pledge to continue doing this as long as it is legal to do so. On a brighter note we would like to thank the majority of people and companies in the industry that support enthusiasts in this hobby.
