Riding on the 22!

We were delighted to receive in the post a few weeks ago a song written by one of our customers about our Service 22.

Neil Barber, a local music teacher, musician and song writer wrote and produced the song about his favourite bus route.

We loved the song so much that we contacted Neil and helped him film a video to go along with his tune.

With a little help from the team at our Longstone Garage, this video was created.

Neil said:

It was a joy to work with Lothian and to celebrate public transport which is so important.

These days I usually write songs for other people so it was great fun to be in the limelight again for the first time in many years.

I use the 22 bus service regularly and it has a well-deserved reputation for being a popular and reliable service. The idea for the song genuinely came to me on The West Approach Road.

Everything in the lyrics is true!

We’re sure you will love the song as much as we do.
