No idea if it has already been reported, 5296 has been branded for Citylink Service 57.

In other news Volvo B9TL (6006) sounded as rough as a lass from Hetton-le-Hole when passing through Gateshead this afternoon on the X1, and finally Volvo B10BLE (4906) was roaming around on the 27 with a missing seat cushion, it is understood some tramp from Hebburn stole it, and is now using it as a pillow on a local park bench.

Noticed 7122 out today at roughly 1430, displaying 'driver training' and the L image on its blinds.
Guessing it was on familiarisation duties, rather than working for the driving school.

Quite right. There are some differences on these new vehicles so all need familiarisation on them.

It looked like 4967 had been involved in a RTC this morning, it was sat in the layover bay with a engineer trying (From what I saw anyway) trying to fix to panels.

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but just noticed that GNE have started to produce network maps again!

For all the new technology, you can't beat a bit old school, visual imagery.

They have Consett, Dunston/Whickham and South Tyneside on their fb page.

I love a good old route map, they actually help me to visualise the a route. I particularly like my leaflet for the Durham County Council map of services in County Durham.

Yes, very good idea. As I've said before proper maps should be on each GNE timetable like Arriva's (and on Toonlink X30/31) However maps of each area showing all routes is a good idea too. Only trouble is, I couldn't get them to download!

Apart from it being out of date, even by the time it was printed!

Big'un has got through a couple of them. He keeps leaving them open, so they lose corners, then they get neatened up... they don't last long.
