    The link I provided looks like it is now out of date after viewing the other thread related to bus times. You will have to go to the Stagecoach website and search for the 25x service only to find correct times. Then again, who's to say that these times are correct.

    I recommend ignoring the Stagecoach website and using the journet planner at http://www.citylink.co.uk/

    Well I would tell you the times from the timetable on the Stagecoach website but to be honest, I have no idea which times are correct to date any more. The only accurate times will be on the CityLink website and these are for the bus which goes to Thurso via Castletown. Or is there a specific bus for the college?

    I can clarify that there is one at Meiklejohns at 8, because that is the one my sister gets to college everyday. There is also one later on, but I don't know the exact time.

    rfr10, it isn't one specifically one for college, but it is mainly college people who use it.

    I'm not surprised there must be about 5 different ways to find timetables and each one will tell you a different thing. I suppose even if people did triple check, they will still end up with the wrong times.

    ..so much for me supposed to know about transport

    Will this bus ever reach it's destination? has anyone else lost the will to live and ordered a taxi instead? will two arrive at the same time? Tune in on Monday when someone phones the bus company and gets the correct timetable.

    Hope you pass. You can then do a ferry service to the college and make a wee bit pin money!
