This vehicle has entered service at Stanley Depot, acting as a dedicated spare vehicle for "Durham Diamond" services 16/16A. To maximise the amount of mileage operated by these fuel-efficient vehicles which are eligible for an enhanced rate of BSOG payment, it will also be allocated to the Sunday operation of service X71 (Consett - Newcastle), alongside similar Wright Streetlite DF/Wright Streetlite Max Micro-Hybrid 5419 (NK15 EOL).
In line with the delivery of new Wright Streetlite DF/Wright Streetlite Max Micro-Hybrid vehicles for the "Durham Diamond" 16/16A services, which is expected to see the cascade of the current "Durham Diamond" branded Mercedes Citaro 0530N/Mercedes Citaro vehicles to Deptford Depot for use on service X5, this vehicle has been repainted into Go North East's new corporate livery.
Having been loaned to Chester-le-Street from Stanley to alleviate vehicle shortages, this vehicle has now temporarily transferred from Chester-le-Street Depot to Washington, serving the same purpose.
This vehicle has transferred from Belmont Depot to Blyth, to assist in providing the depot with an additional spare vehicle, whilst vehicles in Blyth's own fleet undergo repaint and refurbishment.
This vehicle has transferred from Ashington Depot to Blyth, to assist in providing the depot with an additional spare vehicle, whilst vehicles in Blyth's own fleet undergo repaint and refurbishment.
This vehicle has moved from Blyth to Blyth (Under Repair), whilst being refurbished and repainted to "MAX" specification. It is thought that "Coastliner" services 306/308 are both being upgraded to "MAX" specification. The existing Volvo B5LH/Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 allocation will be retained on service 308, but service 306 will be revised to operate with VDL SB200/Wright Pulsar 2 vehicles, with the existing "Coastliner" branded Wright Streetlite DF/Wright Streetlite Max Micro-Hybrid allocation deployed elsewhere.
