Apologies for the delay in getting this one done but I had a few issues and lost the questions several times. If I have missed yours please let me know and Ill put it in this weeks.
ellielovell How often do TWM clean buses (inside and out) as sometimes you can barely see out the window?
Most of the buses are swept out every night when they get back into the garage. They also usually go through a wash but that is not every bus every night as that would take too long. I think that it averages out at about once a month. At that stage they also go through a “Deep clean” where the whole bus is cleaned over including mopping the floors and removing any stubborn graffiti that wasn’t removed on the usual nightly clean
Bounder Cheeky I know, but what’s the font that TWM use for the numbers on bus stops?
Honestly I have no idea and I’m afraid that I wont be able to find out for you as it is Centro that maintains the stops not TWM.
lizzzardbits Yesterday you tweeted that the gusts are pretty bad, do you ever worry that the bus will tip over?
Sometimes I am. When it gets very windy and just the upper deck is full it can feel like the bus is leaning over much more than usual. The single deck buses that I drive also tilt alarmingly when you go round a corner at any speed. I have not heard of any type tipping over yet but there is always a first time.

Crickey! That is a bit worrying. Surely the pure tonnage of the bus would keep it grounded?
Lizzardbits you are right the weight of the bus would keep its six wheels firmly on the ground and it would take a lot to tip a 15 tonne bus over.
