Megabus M87 Service

Further to David Slater's post regarding the reduction of Megabus services in England (Megabus Route To Be Axed - 31st October 2024) he tells me its been some time since he looked at what was running on the 09:10 Megabus Birmingham-Cambridge-Norwich service M87.



He continues 'To my surprise rather than it being Prospect Coaches it was, on both Saturday 2 November and Sunday 3 November 2024, the same coach of Thandi Executive Coaches of Smethwick (TH18 NDY), a Mercedes-Benz Tourismo new to Shearings Holidays (148) in June 2018 registered BU18 YTC.

The enclosed picture was taken on Sunday 3 November 2024 at 1214 as the coach passed through Fiveways, Barton Mills. The scheduled intermediate timings on this trip are Coventry (1000), Cambridge (1135), Norwich (UEA) (1305) and Norwich (Bus Station) (1315).

Only a few weeks remaining before Megabus withdraws this and most other services it operates in England. In this case Sunday 1 December will be the last date of operation'.

Many thanks for the information and photo David
