(19 Jun 2016, 6:23 pm)BusLoverMum Isn't 5302 the See It Do it with the bells that don't work?
The bells work fine but it's the engine since the engine had that rattle noise coming from there since then it hasn't been right , also to mention 5299 won't be in service for a bit as its at Albany motors the driver took his foot off the accelerator and next to rarely any power came from it

A green Great Park Quaylink Versa has just gone down into St. Peter's as Not in Service (2:45pm) 

I've noted in Rare and odd workings, a Blue Citylink Citaro go in as Q3 just 5 mins or so earlier

My one nitpick here - it looks out-of-place with the location of the front registration plate compared to the others, being the only ex-Cobalt Connect one not to have it relocated back to its original location on the bumper.

5243 has its front registration in the same position as 5246, too.

Ex B & H Omnideckers 601/602/603/605 and 622 are on their way as well

Have any of these arrived in the NE yet?

Also any updates on 6134, 6135 and when they'll enter service?

Yes - this bus was VOR when the rest were updated.

They all need to be updated again for a minor change in the Gateshead area (and so that they can have announcements for service 20), so 6091 will be captured then.

No.

One of them was in the process of having a manual ramp fitted today. Neither have had paint prep done yet.

Was in fact due to an issue with the compressor. There wasn't a fire, but it did break down.
