For anyone wishing to use the Dorking Post Bus service: the stop in
Dorking is the best hidden I have yet encountered.

The bus departs from the vehicle entrance to the Post Office (not, as
the timetable suggests, from in the High St.outside the Post Office).
To catch it, go to the Post Office and down the side road beside it
until you come to a opening where PO vans go in. Wait there for the
bus. There is no stop sign, timetable, etc.

Despite this unwelcoming start, it is a nice ride into the
countryside!

How odd. Was there anyone else waiting at this 'stop'?

When you say 'the timetable', are you referring to that shown on the Royal
Mail website? If so, I see what you mean.

Traveline, OTOH, shows the start/end point as 'Dorking, Moores Road (Stand
H)', which according to Transport Direct's mapping is still on the High
Street, and hence not where you boarded. Presumably the bus heads West from
the PO anyway, so one of the 'White Horse' stops would be more plausible,
even if it's still incorrect.

You could notify Traveline of the discrepancy from its home page
http://www.traveline.org.uk
and see what they make of it.

Question to anyone:
Are these post bus services exempt from being registered with the TC? A VOSA
search doesn't turn up anything on this one AFAICS.
