MegabusPlus Upgrade


An upgrade to the MegabusPlus fleet based at Hull is due in the new year using Volvo B9R/Plaxton Panther 53601-6 (KX58 NBJ/K/L/M/N/O) from Bedford once 54301-18 enter service.

These replace Volvo B12M/Jonckheere Mistral 52678 (FN04 JZT) and Volvo B12B/Plaxton Paragon 53030/1/3 (YU04 YAG/H, YBF).

A mega rare working thanks to the Christmas Period......

Aberdeen-based Van Hool Astromega 50227 (SV59 CGG) is presently en-route to Newcastle on the M35 from Manchester. It should then work the M36 to Plymouth later.

More Rail Replacements coming up in the next few weeks....

Saturday 17th January & Sunday 18th January
http://www.northernrail.org/pdfs/trackwo...BR-CAR.pdf
Buses replace trains between Newcastle & Hexham, via Metrocentre & Prudhoe

Rail Replacements for Northern (& First TPE) are organised through First Rail Support, who use a number of contracted operators...
In the North East we have:
- Compass Royston
- Croft Coach Travel
- Esk Valley
- Grierson's
- Lee's of Durham
- M & D Travel
- Procters
- Skelton Coaches
Plus a few others usually.

East Coast & Crosscountry organise their own, usually using different operators. XC (being Arriva owned) used to heavily use Classic but now that'll be no more. It remains to be seen whether they'll use Jim Hughes or not.

Jim Hughes was used for some rail replacement work out of Newcastle last week(?) when there was some issues on the ECML.

Approx 2300 last night, the driver of the M20 decided to roar through Low Fell on his way to Newcastle, rather than stick on the Western Bypass.

Quite surreal seeing it.

There is a Stagecoach tri-axle decker heading into Newcastle to do an M12. Just followed it along the Felling Bypass.
Didn't get reg.
