Good drivers throughout, although a bit confused at start as I didn’t seem to have an allocated seat when all the other passengers did. However I ended up ⬆️ n seat 1 which was great!

The only challenge was at the start trying to work out which number the bus to Astorga left from - it was 07. I had to ask other travellers. An info touch screen would be very helpful.
