firehawk 0 Posted March 12, 2011 There's one goes through Bath most Saturdays aswell, could even be the same one. When I worked there, there would usually be a crowd of staff at the top floor of the bus station watching it go by. If we were lucky, the driver would blast the whistle a few times aswell.
