Yes I was going to say something about this---don't a lot of the duties from provincial depots include an early morning express into Belfast followed by a run to Jordanstown on the Uni-link 163A before running light back to their depot. The 0720 from Downpatrick used to do this and the interesting thing is that whatever the driver the service number was always shown as '363 JORDANSTOWN'. (Some Downpatrick buses have Jordanstown at the end of their blinds for doing the University express on Sunday evenings). Somebody must have told the Downpatrick drivers to show 363 instead of 163. The 0720 from Downpatrick was withdrawn in September. There used to be an Antrim bus as well that went round about the same time as the Downpatrick one; I sometimes saw them when I used to be coming in on the 85 Citybus from Mount Merrion via Botanic Avenue round about 8:30. Can any of the Jordanstown people give any further details?
