You've gotta love First and their whacky branding, I've seen recent pictures of First's Uni buses in York complete with a Duck on the front top deck window and a swanky livery to go with.
Here in Bath the student will have to make do with 'Devastatin' Dave' who proclaims to 'saving you money'.
I wonder how many of the students are rolling their eyes at that one!
Been living down here for nearly 5 years and this was one of the few times that I have done the tourist day out in Bath complete with open top bus tour, although any time I have to go to the city I make sure I pop into the little sweat shop over there because they sell the best range of liquorice.

The Shot
This is an image of the Roman Baths in Bath, UK with Bath Abbey in the background. This is a shot from the archives I got round to processing from 2011.
The picture was taken handheld with a Sony A700 with a sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 12mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing. Opened in Photoshop first and each image noise reduced with Noiseware Pro and saved as tiffs.
This picture was enhanced with HDR processing and Topaz and Photoshop to bring in more detail and adjust the lighting.
The improvement in the before and after pictures on my Blog is particularly noticeable.
Full details of the processing together with before and after images are on my Blog see Edwin Jones Photography Blog

The Roman Baths are a well-preserved thermae in the city of Bath, Somerset, England. A temple was constructed on the site between 60-70AD in the first few decades of Roman Britain. Its presence led to the development of the small Roman urban settlement known as Aquae Sulis around the site. The Roman baths—designed for public bathing
During the summer of 2021, the railway lines around Bristol Temple Meads were undergoing Engineering Works, which led to a variety of bustitutions and adapted railway services.

150207 still wearing its Northern colours at Bath Spa with an afternoon working from Bristol Temple Meads to Westbury.
I travelled on this service as far as Avoncliff, where passengers disembarked only through the doors behind the cab due to the extremely short platforms there.

Oldfield Park is situated a mile or so west of Bath Spa and I think that the population of that fine city had come out to see 'the steamer passing through Bath' - it had apparently, been mentioned in the local paper that morning.
In the days leading up to the running of this train, UK Steam Info stated that haulage would be either a Black 5 or 70013, having photographed 45212 20-days earlier in the area, I was undecided whether to go as the forecast was not too wonderful and I did not want another Black 5 (am I being too blase about these fine mixed-traffic workhorses?). The weather was better than forecast, but only just and it was not the Black 5!
On 19 December 2017, the stock from Steam Dreams' excursion 'The Cathedrals Express' is worked as 5Z83, the late-running 14.24 Bath Spa to Bristol East Depot ECS and Britannia Pacific numbered 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' is seen powering through a packed Oldfield Park station.

Bath is the second largest city in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England, known for its Roman-built baths and Georgian brick architecture. In 2016, its population reached 90.931. Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 11 miles (18.5 km) south-east of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage Site in 1987.
The city became a spa with the Latin name Aquæ Sulis, AD 60 when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon, although hot springs were known even before then. Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a popular religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era. Georgian architecture, crafted from Bath stone, includes the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room, and Assembly Rooms.

GWR 14T Siphon G W2768W at Bath Spa - c.02/1970.
Robert Ferris (on GWR E-LIST) tells me:
"According to Slinn's GW Siphons No 2768 was indeed a Siphon G built to diagram O33, lot 1578 October 1936, but was taken over in 1939 for use as a ward car in one of the ambulance trains (No 32). This involved removing all the louvres except for one in each pair of double doors. The remaining louvres were sheeted over with two converted to windows on one side and three on the other. Shell ventilators were fitted. Internally stretcher bunks and steam heating was provided. On return they were rebuilt as parcel vans to diagram M34 but retained their modified external appearance. No 2775 (now part of the NRM National collection) underwent the same fate."

My wife and I enjoyed a walk from Bradford on Avon to Bath Spa along the towpath of the Kennet and Avon Canal. That was in mid February and it was like a pleasant Spring afternoon. Sharp reflections gave the water a mirror like appearance. The walk is about ten miles and it is a delightful wander. We took the train to Bradford on Avon and then re-joined the railway at Bath Spa but you can do it the other way round.
