over the border
Given time and a light schedule my preferred choice to the Edinburgh area is the A68 vice the A1 if driving. Not many buses once you leave Ponteland but the daily National Express service over the A68 still runs providing a life line to many in this remote area. The service is now the 534 running from Glasgow & Edinburgh down through the East borders to Newcastle and onto Leeds & Hull as shown by Parks of Hamilton KSK986 spoilt only by the garish Pride of Britain livery. This is Byrness near Otterburn with the now closed "Border Park Services" on the left, this was once the well known "first & last" services on this road and the site was recently sold at Auction so may have a new use shortly. The prices for fuel read.. Petrol 113 and diesel 117 if only !
