After contacting the company for info, this vehicle was previously registered as N990EAR and was initially on hire from Stafford Bus Centre in 2009, but the company decided to buy it in the end.

(27 Nov 2013, 9:46 am)BusFanPrudhoe The 131 was awarded on an emergency contract to Peter Hogg. One of Munro's Plaxton Beaver 2s was sold to Peter Hogg in January. The rest of the routes were allocated to First and Perryman's. Perrymans have established a new depot (with seperate operator licence) in St Boswells. Perryman's have also aquired new Optare Versa 11.7m buses for the routes.

New buy for Peter Hogg in Newcastle today on service 131 is Optare Excel YN53WZJ, another former Munro's motor.

New 131 route and timetable as of Monday 12th October. The morning journey will commence from Kelso at 0850 on school days, and all Newcastle journeys will serve both Central Station and Eldon Square.

RE: Peter Hogg of Jedburgh - Cobalt271 - 17 Oct 2016

Looks like that spells the end for Solo YJ55BGO

RE: Peter Hogg of Jedburgh - S830OFT - 20 Jan 2018

YN06RVY was on the 131 today, surely it's against DDA to use a step entrance vehicle.

Likely to be registered as a coach, so doesn't need to conform to DDA regs until 1st January 2020.

RE: Peter Hogg of Jedburgh - Rapidsnap - 20 Jan 2018

Even if it isn't registered as a coach, you can use it in normal service for a certain number of days per calender year. Thats how Lothian managed to use heritage vehicles on a normal bus route.

They have had this for a while now.
Shame it doesn't have a tachograph as it would be good to allocate to the 131.
