(25 Oct 2017, 10:27 pm)stagecoachbusdepot I've often wondered but never paid enough attention to discover - are the deckers always on the same boards? And are these ones which experience particularly heavy loads at peak times? I'd have thought there would be high passenger numebrs on all the expresses at certain times of day so three deckers seems too few to have much of an impact overall for the epress cycle? Or is there some other logic (other than Slatyford having 3 spare deckers) that influences this?

Yeah the X79 is a fixed decker board, plus the X78 that diverts past Ponteland High School (0840/1533). No suggestion on the running boards for anything else fixed, unless allocated at Slaty's discretion as I would of thought there would be based on pax loadings.
