Rosie meets Reading! Timelapse - Jet Black 1 | Newbury - Reading, Station Road (Oct 2018)
Join Rosalina and Princess Peach, as we sit the full-length of the Jet Black 1, from the front seat on the bottom deck. We begin in Newbury, travelling via Thatcham, Woolhampton, Theale and Calcot, and we finish on Station Road in Reading. The 1 then turns around the corner to its final stop: Blagrave Street. You can stay onboard to this bus stop, but most people alight at Station Road, for all the other bus and rail services.

Notes:
- To slightly foreshadow Bus Log#29, I decided to edit a video with the theme: "Reading." A new bus station is being constructed at Newbury Wharf, which I believe is noticeable near the start of the video. A timelapse of this bus route done in present time is likely to have some differences, especially from what I saw on the Reading Buses website. I will provide a link at the bottom.
- Depending on the duty, some buses leave West Berkshire Hospital using the other exit, rather than going the same way it entered the area. The other exit takes you onto the A4, which eventually leads up to the same place.
- The timelapse will be shaky because I record them (90% of the time) with my Canon PowerShot cameras, and they don't have much room to use blu-tac to stick it to the plastic. Even if they did however, I'm not one who personally supports blu-tac since it can leave a mark on the plastic.
- And before I forget, I must credit a passenger who boarded the bus; she politely asked to sit next to me, as she knew I was recording, and she did not say anything rude to me about recording. I don't normally find friendly people like that, so thank you very much.
