If an omnicity gets preserved will it be 5274 (I really hope not), because the last two buses to get preserved from Go North East's fleet, 4855 & 3833, were the last buses out of their respecive batches, and 5274 was the last omnicity to arrive at the company.

Closure of A1290 Downhill Lane - 17th July

The road surface on the A1290 Downhill Lane and the A19 Overbridge needs to be replaced and will be resurfaced during the Nissan fortnight closure over the next few weeks.

That should be fun for the passengers of the 50 and 56!

I think 5268 was the last one to arrive actually!

According to August edition of Buses Magazine, Brighton and Hove Scania Omnidekka 606 (GX03SUF) has been withdrawn due to fire damage. I know its been mentioned here before but does anyone have any knowledge as to whether this was one of the Scanias earmarked for transfer to GNE later this year.

It's not always the case with preservationists choosing the last in the batch, sometimes it's just what is available and the best candidate for restoration. While 3833 was chosen because of it's significance, 4855 was chosen more because it was the best of the batch and the NNRG's preferred choice.

The "Pride" QuayLink is at Saltmeadows gaining its vinyls also, the Streetdeck is there.

Unfortunately I couldn't get a phone shot of the Streetdeck as they put the shutters down as soon as they seem me.
