Elgin, a tram from St Thomas to Blackboy Road on a Saturday would be a delight!

Back in the day, when I lived in Alphington St. you could catch a "football special" from Exe Bridges to the Odeon in Sidwell St. and return after the match. Can't recall the fare, but probably just a few pence.

It wouldn't have cost very much, EB. I remember (c 1960) that I would travel from Alphington Street up to Summer Lane, Whipton, to visit my Grandma, for which the fare would be tuppence ha'penny!

Would that have been a Greyhound Bus?

Only when I was on it.

Exeter bike-share scheme goes bust

Not sure how many fans used Co Bikes to get to SJP or in general around the City, but another blow to the traffic problems we encounter trying to get to and from SJP.

Bring back the trams

Loved trams me, especially when we lived in Berlin.
