(20 Aug 2017, 1:39 pm)Jimmi Well, the 14:00 M1 from the Metrocentre seemingly has failed to make an appearance in Newcastle this afternoon...

Gave up waiting on St Thomas Street at 14:28, was due at 14:10.

I was in Newcastle with my friend today so wasn't on the buses, although I saw R222LOT at 12:10 on St Thomas Street with Peter Cowell himself at the wheel. He dropt one passenger off and drove towards Great North Road. I never new of the Metrocentre extension, although having rode R222LOT on Friday I made a note of it. I hope this helps you.

Don't know the answer to that I'm afraid, lets not rule out the possibility of them being red & black either which was the livery they were in before joining PCL (assuming that they are the one's I think they are).

R222LOT now has Rural Link vinyls and the pink circle has been removed.

I'm racking my brains to think if these had leather seats and charging points.

The fleet is certainly improving - just need something to replace the Darts now though they are ok on the likes of the S1

It has a plug style door too, something I've never seen on a service bus before.

The Versa's YJ13 HHU & YJ13 HHW are out in service on the 470, 473 & A1. The buses look very smart even to the point of members of the public commenting on them at Alnwick Bus Station.
PCL are doing special student tickets with a day or weekly available on the bus with the option of an annual ticket directly from PCL Travel.

The rest of the Weaveaway subsidaries/brands are very similar.

It may be a Versa, but they certainly look appealing.

If I remember right, it was Weaveaway who upgraded the ex Arriva Cadets/Renowns a couple of years back.

Edit: https://www.flickr.com/photos/je1791/28358299226/ it wasn't, apologies. Knew there was black on them and they were in the same neck of the woods.
