They will be sent to Mercedes for warranty repaint. They will probs have to pay extra for different colour like they did for the citaros on the diamond

Here's a question for you all. Newcastle is becoming very hard to get in and out off. More and more people are using buses to get around thanks to spiraling motoring costs. Do you think it's time that all fares collected in Newcastle City Centre become cashless where you buy from a machine then show the ticket and sit down?
Theve played on with the 26 to many times miss the black cats brand fitted well with the route.
The Wellington Street, Gateshead bridgeworks have, as you will be aware, now over-run, by a considerable number of weeks.
Following dialogue with Gateshead Council, we have now been advised that these works will be removed by Friday 20th December 2013 and will not be reinstated after the Christmas and New Year period.
Consequently, all services operating between Gateshead and Newcastle will return to normal route via Hills Street as soon as the bridge works have been removed.

The roadworks in Birtley have started again by the War Memorial. Causing a lot of disruption

Network Rail seem to under estimate the scope of work on these jobs allowing their contractors to apply multiple variation orders resulting in the schemes failing on time and budget delivery.
