3.全英最大的巴士博物館點去(由倫敦出發)？開放時間如何？

4.小弟想乘坐Manchester的The Witch Way X43，請問總站地點在那？

5.小弟想坐National Express的IRIZAR PB車身的SCANIA，請問邊條線最大機會坐到？

6.倫敦的Oyster Card在LHR機場什麼位置有售？幾多錢？

小弟很耐無去過英國，所以希望各位板友可以幫幫手，謝謝

1. Strictly speaking, there is none. The best in London, I'd like to think, is the 121 (Edgware - Wood Green) operated by Arriva London and the 85 (Putney Bridge - Kingston). For sightseeing the 11 and 15 are the best bet. If you really want a scenic ride, the only way is to get out of London. The best on my list is Yorkshire Coastliner's 840 (Leeds - York - Malton - Wiltby). It's a very long route (nearly 4 hours one way), but it's really worth doing.

2. The 9 and 15 at Zone 1 between 0930 - 1730 will do the trick.

3. The one at the top of my head is Scottish Vintage Bus Museum, but that pretty far away. You are much better off just google it.

4. The first stop at Manchester is right next to the coach station. If you get there by coach, you won't miss it. That service goes out of Manchester btw, in case you are not aware of yet.

5. Supposedly 420 (London - Birmingham - Wolverhampton) is the best bet, but it's not an absolute guarantee, since I believe Central Connect operate the service as well, with Scania/Van Hools.

6. Tube station or the TfL travel centre.

本人會在愛丁堡留2日1夜，請問由愛丁堡去Scottish Vintage Bus Museum應該點去？

4. X43 如果冇改總站o既話應該o係 National Express 站對面



由火車站(A) 行去X43總站o既路線


5. 如果冇換車o既話, 去Bristol o既 040好似全部都係PB

如果有野改o左o既請指正

我唔係好明ticket type: pay as you go的意思，可以解釋一下嗎?
另外auto top-up的意思係咪自動增值?

I honestly don't know - Last time I went, I drove. That's why I said you're much better googling it.

The Irizar PBs can also be found on rt.210 (Gatwick - Heathrow - Banbury - Coventry - Birmingham - Wolverhampton).
But it seems that it's not a usual route tourists will ride on...

Also I remember seeing PBs on rt.460 as well, but not sure if they're usually served by them.

460 has a substantial allocation to Veolia East Midlands, and you are more likely to find Scania/Van Hools or B12Bs on that service.

pay as you go即係任你用幾多就top up幾多
同英國手提電話既pay as you go一樣

Auto top-up係自動增值
