Displaying a service-number not advertised anywhere on their promotions (therefore unrecognisable to their passengers/potential passengers), apparent late-running due to timetable issues (even though they had many trial runs - this should have been avoided?), using a non-advertised vehicle on the first day (which, according to somebody's photos on Flickr, actually performed worse on the motorway - and it isn't an advertised "Merc") and having the promoted "Mercs" running around without any sort of promotion on them at all (no company names or even destinations!)... As much as I admire ClassicBus' ambitions and hope that their RedRocket service succeeds, I really do think that they performed below their usual standards yesterday and hope that things (the above mentioned things, especially) start to improve.
