Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2016
(23 Jul 2016, 7:47 am)Jamie M Why would this be operated by Riverside given the timetable states that 33 is between the Sunderland area? Logically, wouldn't this be put under deptford's control?

(23 Jul 2016, 7:49 am)Dan Service 33 is a new contract operating between Newcastle City Centre and Hollywood Avenue:Ah, thanks for that. These changes really haven't had much attention in the public domain.

It is currently operated by Kingsley's Coaches under contract to Nexus, but will be operated by Go North East from Sunday.

Another question that's come to mind is why do GNE even need Crook depot? There's only 10 buses to which some are replaced by CLS buses at points during the day. I regularly see V338LGC operate CLS' 21 and CLS tridents crop up on the X21, and after a certain time and sundays - the whole X21 route ran by CLS.

(23 Jul 2016, 7:39 am)Dan No - that would be Tynedale Links 556 (as confirmed here yesterday).
554 will be used on the ASDA bus, allowing 557 to be used alongside 547 (which has transferred to Riverside from Stanley) on service 33.

(23 Jul 2016, 9:46 am)Tom Anyone know where the 11 will be stopping in Gateshead heading to Whitley Bay? Will it be the stop where most of the buses stop going to Newcastle or where the 1 stops now to Whitley Bay.It would be nice if it ran into and from eldon square, but there's always too much traffic which i would imagine would create some bottlenecks on a route that long.
