(28 Jul 2014, 11:09 pm)Robert Dont know if you already know but services 886 and 845 will be operated by the same bus. I suppose it doesnt take a genius to work out that that is the logical way of doing it but thought id post it anyway.

(28 Jul 2014, 11:14 pm)andy1977 Yup, that's exactly the way the duty board from Nexus has it! With the misc workings we have to follow a nexus duty board so don't get any say in the workings etc.

(29 Jul 2014, 8:56 am)Robert However what i dont understand is looking at the timetables. The 886 gets to St Thomas More, Blaydon at 1525. Which is fine. However, nexus give the driver no time to load up there as the 845 departs the school also at 1525. Id like to see how the driver keeps up with the schedule.

(29 Jul 2014, 6:58 pm)nk55 Sadly from past experience, nexus must use a computer programme that has no roundabouts, traffic lights, junctions or other traffic. I remember doing the 826 from harton comp to gypsy green stadium then having 5 mins to get to whitburn comp load up & depart.

(31 Jul 2014, 8:20 pm)Andy KU52 RXF was on 710 today never seen it before have they had it long?

(31 Jul 2014, 8:23 pm)tyresmoke Not the 713? That is operated by Hunters of Tantobie who also own this Dart

(31 Jul 2014, 8:25 pm)Dan Andy - brilliant way to tell if it was actually the 713 and owned by Hunters will be if you took a photo of the bus...

Without fail, the driver covers his face and sticks his middle finger up at you. It's always fun going to Stanley, just to take some photos of him. Never had the same experience with Stanley Travel.

(31 Jul 2014, 9:38 pm)Robert I must admit i think Hunters should be in line for the most unprofessional company award and if there isnt one, there should be!

- The drivers dont have uniforms
- Wouldnt say the buses are well maintained
- The yard isnt secure which isnt good for a depot thats on a main road

Probably more reasons that could be rhymed off the list but thats just a few that i think are most important. The top one for a start gives people a first impression on the company and to me, its not a very good one at that.

(31 Jul 2014, 9:42 pm)Andreos Constantopolous Did you ever see/know of St George Travel?
Long gone, but an interesting set up.

(31 Jul 2014, 9:42 pm)Andreos Constantopolous Did you ever see/know of St George Travel?
Long gone, but an interesting set up.

Classic, Gillinghams and others have all gone down the non-uniform route in the past.
Sure Stanley did too at one point.

(31 Jul 2014, 9:46 pm)aureolin Interesting is one way of putting it. Was it the 179/279 that they ran in Washington? Horrible clapped out little mini buses and the professional standards of a bent copper.

(31 Jul 2014, 9:47 pm)Jimmi JSB/SB Travel drivers don't appear to have uniforms and at least one of their drivers drives around in tatty T-Shirts, think one said sex, drugs and sausage rolls.
