(03 Feb 2016, 1:33 pm)Lee Sinclair 1416 on the X1.When and where did you see 4652 and on what service? Wouldn't mind a ride on it to see how it is inside since MAX refurbishment.
4652 on the 1/5/5A/19.

(03 Feb 2016, 1:53 pm)Lee Sinclair I passed it when I was on the X1 (1416) in New Shildon. At the time it was on the 1 going to Bishop Auckland. It will be on the 5/5A going back to Darlington now mate.
Thanks.
Hopefully that means it's half an hour behind the 5A I'm on to Darlington now.

It's on the 1339 5 Bishop - Darlington, in Newton Aycliffe now around 5 late.
4658 is on 1348 X75 Barney - Darlington around 11 late in Gainford at present
I'll also add that 1508 is on X26/X27, 1340 X26 out of Darlington.

What is going to be so different to the insides of 4652/8 as a result of their MAX refurbishment?

(03 Feb 2016, 2:31 pm)scania driver What is going to be so different to the insides of 4652/8 as a result of their MAX refurbishment?The reason was because someone mentioned something about USB charging points on them and there is indeed some on the backs of the seats.

The 16:30 494 has Longbenton DSS as on the front destination panel yet it's route is in the opposite direction to Newbiggin. The only 494 to Longbenton DSS is the 6:01am.
It also wasn't being tracked in the app. Driver set the wrong route?

With the wrong destination I assume the driver selected 04940001 by mistake.
The 494 never ever gets tracked, maybe because it runs SNIS from Ashington to Jesmond instead of from Newbiggin...

I assume it's probably an easy error to make when the Benton-Newbiggen route's only ran once a day.
However, I've definitely had the 494 show tracking data in the app before but maybe that instance itself was caused by some other error.

Think I just saw 4658 on service 7 to Ferryhill. Certainly appeared to be an unbranded Omnicity.

It does get tracked, unless I've been seeing mythical buses......
