(10 Aug 2015, 5:57 pm)Michael Any surprise movements then Dan?
The following Dennis MPD/Transbus Mini Pointer vehicles have been withdrawn from service (most of which are now at Saltmeadows Road awaiting disposal):
- 536 (NA52 AWY)
- 537 (NA52 AWZ)
- 538 (NA52 AXB)
- 539 (NA52 AXC)
- 541 (NA52 AXF)
- 545 (NA52 AXK)
- 546 (NA52 AXM)
Transbus MPD/Transbus Mini Pointer 560 (NK53 TKZ) has transferred from Deptford Depot to Riverside, ahead of onward transfer to Hexham Depot.
The following Transbus MPD/Transbus Mini Pointer vehicles have transferred from Peterlee Depot to Deptford:
- 564 (NK53 TLO)*
- 565 (NK53 TLU)*
- 573 (NK53 TMY)
- 574 (NK53 TMZ)
* These vehicles were sent to Saltmeadows Road Depot for repaint into Go North East's corporate livery on Sunday.
Consequent withdrawals as a result of these cascades will presumably take place once all four return from repaint.
Finally, Dennis MPD/Alexander Mini Pointer 619 (NK55 RUW) has transferred from Peterlee Depot to Deptford, ahead of onward transfer to Hexham Depot, as confirmed yesterday.
It may be worth mentioning that Peterlee Depot currently retain Deptford's "Northern" branded Dennis MPD/Transbus Mini Pointer 547 (NA52 AXN) and also Volvo B10BLE/Wright Renown 5161 (T811 CBW) - the higher PVR for the duration of the Millburngate Bridge roadworks can certainly account for one of these vehicles being retained until next month, as Peterlee will be covering a PVR of 13 with 14 "indiGo" branded Optare Solos.
