Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2015
(10 Aug 2015, 8:41 pm)S813 FVK So it isn't Orange? If it was i'm guessing it would be nothing special and you would have said.
If i put all of the windows out on the other branded vehicles, will they all get repainted too? Would certainly speed up the process...

(10 Aug 2015, 8:47 pm)S813 FVK I think the only thing that it would do would be getting me arrested and charged with criminal damage.
Bad idea

(10 Aug 2015, 8:52 pm)Dan The replacement windows on Mercs are very expensive, and I hear they can be a pain to fit as well... I think Saltmeadows would appreciate it if you kept your rocks to yourself!

(10 Aug 2015, 8:56 pm)S813 FVK The costs that come with the Mercedes badge eh. Maybe the Wright way to go in the future in terms of cost is with the Streetlite and Streetdeck.
See what i did there? Just a bit of Monday night banter

(10 Aug 2015, 8:59 pm)Dan As long as it's not the rear 'window' of a Streetlite - they're a pain too, as the window has to be curved...

(10 Aug 2015, 9:02 pm)S813 FVK A window on 5396 has already been put out. Been out for ages and branding is still waiting to be reapplied. I understand that it will take time to do and isn't worth keeping it off the road for. Especially as it is only part of the route that is missing.

Not telling the colour....#waitandsee
It did get a window put out, hence why it has gone straight into the paintshop once the window was repaired as it was not due to go in just yet.

(10 Aug 2015, 9:07 pm)Dan Yes - the window was put out by our friends in Stanley a week after entering service. Surprised it hasn't been sorted yet.
There's another with missing branding on the nearside which is more recent - 5400 if I remember rightly - towards the back of the bus.

(10 Aug 2015, 9:11 pm)S813 FVK Haven't seen 5400 for a few weeks (mainly because i am only ever out of the house 2-3 days each week) so the chances of me seeing it is quite slim.
(10 Aug 2015, 9:49 pm)S813 FVK No!! Volvo B8RLEs would be perfect.

(10 Aug 2015, 10:07 pm)Michael Hopefully we see some of them in the NE but well probables get Hybrid Streetlites.... haha
Hopefully if they do get new buses, it'll mean that there won't be spares on the routes all the time....
We also have to think about the changes to the routes GNE want to do.

(10 Aug 2015, 10:12 pm)S813 FVK Yep. Now the consultations have closed, id say decisions will be made very soon on what to do. If the Diamond proposals do go ahead, i can see a PVR decrease meaning some will go red?
