(26 Jan 2018, 4:49 pm)Andreos1 One of the tomato soup Solar's was also there. Think it was one of the acquired Solar's rather than a native one.

(26 Jan 2018, 6:09 pm)Dan 4991 - now withdrawn having suffered defects uneconomical to repair.
I believe the Euro 5 modification/upgrades will be transferred into another bus - not worth doing for everything, but unavoidable in this instance. Likely to be 5202.

(28 Jan 2018, 12:36 am)Michael How many Citaro's have been branded for "The 9"
(27 Jan 2018, 1:47 pm)Michael Wonder if it'll go against the B9's?, as the likes of the FAB 56/Red Arrows have had them for a few years now.

(28 Jan 2018, 9:05 am)Dan Should be heading to Percy Main for the 309/310 - another Optare demonstrator vehicle to join the fleet on a long-term basis.
Go North East has already a MetroDecker to the Red Arrows once (the blue one - 9099), so unlikely to be evaluated on this route again, as GNE have already got quite a bit of data on its performance on that route.
Yes, all should be complete (or will be, by the end of the day).
5326 and 5329 were the first two fitted on Thursday night, with the rest planned to be branded last night and today. The Sunderland 2021 bus is planned to have some minor tweaks done today, too.
Haha, yes. Quite a sizeable number of movements, will keep us all busy trying to keep on top of them all for photos etc!
Not a day of rest for me, but will knock something together tonight to get our fleet lists up to date.

(28 Jan 2018, 9:35 am)Dans_bus_photos He's just said in the message above he will do it tonight when he gets time. I think a few people forget he actually has a life and a job away from this forum and that it can't be updated every 5 minutes.
