Think they might keep the Citaro's will next year at least, of course plans can change.
Has the last 2 branded B9's entered service yet along with the 2 spare?
Not yet!

Not being rushed into service! Makes a nice change - all power sockets and Wi-Fi should be working.

Well I had not like Crusader old brand but after couple of weeks, I really do like it. The red stands out better than the silver. Something like this!

Does anyone know if the X22, 13/14 interwork?
I was on the 10:14 (approx) 14 from Durham to Arnison Centre and by 12 the same bus and driver was is Chester on the X22.
Thanks =]

14's interwork with X22, as a round trip on the 14 takes a little longer than a round trip on the 13's. 13's run separately.

5348 is the latest to be branded - 5339/41 still remain to receive branding.

The interworking of 14 and X22 also allows driver changeovers in Chester rather than sending out a van or empty bus as was the case with stand alone 13/14.

This one with "For connections to buses and metro retail park" notation.
Still a rather oily rear unfortunately. Bumper could do with a repaint.
All four sounding much better than in recent months though which is good to see.

Love that image, but there's a lot of detail which would make it really expensive to print. The old Crusader logo like that is also a lot better than the present. May confuse folk having to board on the far side of the bus mind. :p

Thanks, Well that's my repaint from Omsi Bus Simulator
. I dont think it would cost more if Cruasder Logo was replaced.

Obviously not...
The page is still under construction, I will add those registrations today.

Thanks. Fleet list PDF gives number of seats, just not the door position. Should be able to work the layout out for myself.
5333 is now at Saltmeadows - presumably for repaint.

Yes.
One of the Tyne Tees livered deckers was seen operating the Ten service today over midday/early afternoon (arriving and leaving Hexham about half-12).
I was on the opposite Ten (Corbridge noon to Prudhoe to Corbridge 1pm) so couldn't see the registration.

3963 was on there yesterday and was reported to be on a board which finished in Hexham last night. Perhaps the same vehicle.

3963 is the TTX in question.
A friend of mine has just told me that he has just passed 5151 in Wallsend out in service following repaint.
5151 was out today in its new all red look!

5151 done the last 17 around Rosehill tonight (terminating at Wallsend), so will be on the 17A's tonight.
Still yet to see 4912 or 4913 out yet, anyone had sightings?
