Stagecoaches Hovercraft Trial

This Video was taken orginally taken on the 19-07-2007 at Stagecoaches Garage on, The Prom, Kirkcaldy, Fife

At the Network Meeting on 15th April 2010, In The Kingswood Hotel, Burntisland one of the Guest Speakers
was Mr Steve Walker Operations Director, Stagecoach East Scotland.

He told the Meeting that Stagecoach was planning to start a Hovercraft Service to Fife, between Fife (Kirkcaldy and the Edinburgh side and that they were in discussions with Fife Council and Edinburgh City Council about landing sites and park and ride and other facilities plus funding. They hoped to be operating in about 18 months if all goes well.

So I thought I would put the video back onto our website.

This video is 24 minutes long
