From Tuesday 24th May
Rosslare Europort 20:15

It seems  you can get through ticketing as well. Not only that but this also means a earlier arrival into london for anyone traveling from west wales as the currrent national express service doesnt arrive in london til 10:50

I am glad to see swansea back on the megabus network, i do have some photos of the tri axle olympian parked up on the kingsway in swansea.

This expansion of megabus west of cardiff is likely to unsettle both first & national express, could we see some journeys on first cymru's greyhound service being extended to Bristol & Lndon?

Some further expansions:

Newport gains an additional service to London at 07:25 (which starts at
Cwmbran 07:05) and a 19:30 return from Victoria (terminates Cwmbran 23:15).

The 04:30 Newport to London now calls at Swindon Stratton Park (05:45),
with a return available from Swindon at 00:35 (23:00 off Victoria).


The cwmbran depot is also expected to get more new coaches as there is also plasn to increase the Cardiff - Brimingham - Manchester - Newcastle - Sunderland service .
