(23 Feb 2022, 6:02 pm)KingSlayerRBLX Technically yes it is A-Line's renown as 4922 was theirs until Dan got it. and it does some services here and there. hence why its 'semi-preserved' as it is a preserved vehicle whilst Dan or other A-Line drivers take it out.

The Renown although owned by Dan and Semi-Preserved is an A-Line vehicle as it runs on A-Line O Discs that allows it to carry fare paying passengers.

The ventelation grills look to be wrong for an ex GNE example. Registration mark looks to end in either CK or CX which leads to eithera former Ribble or Yorkshire Traction vehicle. I shall research.

It is former Yorkshire Traction A646OCX - https://www.flickr.com/photos/stazicker/49579104041

Also saw use on an open top tour around Llandudno.

Yeah, it was the suffix at the end that got my attention. Noticed the C and thought it looked like a G.

Thanks for clearing it up though.

It was North Tyne Links, not Wallsend Links (it might have been at some point though) which was the old 80 at the time which is now partially the 335, which before that was the 42. One of the many North Tyneside routes which has changed stupid amount of times and now is surprisingly dead. Believe it was partially the 303/304/313/314? for a bit aswell around 2002.

I could've swore it was a number with C in it at some point aswell.

40 (Clockwise) / 41 (Anti Clockwise) - Wallsend - High Farm - Battle Hill - Hadrian Park - Howdon - Wallsend
40C (Clockwise) / 41C (Anti Clockwise) - Wallsend - High Farm - Battle Hill - Cobalt - Howdon - Wallsend

Don't think it was that one. 83/83C I believe it was but not 100% and it used to be just the North Shields side of it. Then it was eventually merged with something on the other side to form the 80 which was North Tyne Links even known they look identical pretty much.

Wallsend links was the 40/41/40C/41C, it was then rebranded as North Tyne Links in 2010 when it became the 40/41/80

Former GNE Solos NK54DEU, NK54DFA and NK54DFC have joined the fleet of Nailsworth-based operator Cotswold Green. Unfortunately NK54DFA has been reported as having suffered an engine failure, and is now being stripped for spares.

The fourth member of the quartet, NK54DFD, has also ended up in the same part of the country, and is now with Henshaw of Moreton-in-Marsh.

Noticed an Interdeck on Commonwealth Games duties at the weekend. Was heading in the opposite direction, so didn't see if there was an operator vinyl anywhere or even which one it was unfortunately.
