You Wait Ages For A Bus Timetable, Then Three Come Along At Once...

Previously, I’ve discussed the Travel Dundee changes from 5th November here and elsewhere. As part of this, new timetable booklets were produced for the 9x/10x, 14, and 28/29. When the new services started, some Monday to Saturday daytime journeys on the 28/29 were modified by up to three minutes earlier/later per trip. It was planned that the original edition of the booklet (all leaflets carry a code, and for the 28/29, it’s TWM912), so this was TWM912/6. There was to be a new edition, and this one would be in full (four/CYMK) to distinguish it from the original. Only, last Monday (20th), the service reverted to the planned/registered service, but all the old TWM912/6’s had been pulped to make way for the TWM912/7’s. This means I’ve just taken delivery of a bundle at home, and a caseload at work, of timetables that were obsolete by the time they arrived. Now, because all the originals have been pulped, a third issue (TWM912/8) is to be printed, and will include a few minor corrections... at least it’s printed on 75% recycled paper and 25% from sustainable sources!
