It was quarter past 1 I saw it.

Anyone know when 22455 moved to Hartlepool?

I haven't had a moment to myself all day hence my lack of posts in general across the board. I've just got home, so I am now able to reply!

Are you able to say why the vehicle is at South Shields?

Yeah, engine rebuild, interior refurb, new body panels and a repaint.

I'm assuming that the 1st Jan DDA deadline only affects certain lengths of Darts? i.e. the SPD examples would still be classed as full sized buses, right? Can anyone tell me what lengths fall into the 'Midi' category?

[I know it is done on weight rather than length, but assume all over a certain length to be heavier than the weight criteria...]

2 words for why this photo shows 27163 working a 36 that was only going to Middlesbrough Bus Station - Newport Bridge! 27163 came light from Billingham due to late running but still arrived in Stockton 7 minutes after it was due to leave, and eventually left for Middlesbrough 12 minutes late.

[attachment=6001]

Originally on the 36 (and on an all-night working) - 27159 ended up being replaced on there by 24101 and then ended up on the 37

Does that mean the sudden upsurge in people voting against QCS can be investigated too?
Noticed the increase, seemed to coincide with all of these random new members.

Nothing to do with duplicate accounts - the poll seems to be accepting votes from guests now too (presumably since myBB 1.8 upgrade), but all three categories have received votes from guests.

The current standings, minus guests, lies at:
- For (25 votes)
- Against (36 votes)
- Not Sure (5 votes)

As such, the poll results were only 'jeopardised' by three votes. Seemingly isn't anything on the poll itself which allows me to prevent guests from voting, so I'll have a look tomorrow morning to see if there's now a 'universal setting'.

Spam accounts seem to be getting through a lot more than they have done in the recent past - tends to be one every few days now, but I've managed to catch the recent ones before most people noticed them.

19437 inside Walkergate depot after refurb and de-branding by topsweep1506, on Flickr

19437 is reported to have been de-branded and internally refurbished.

I'm on 28040 and the door seems to be loose.

Edit: even though GNE dominate Chester Road, the 16 still picks up a lot of passengers.

Im on the 16 now and they're's like 12 seats left.

What does "SORN" mean?

Seen a couple of not in service gas buses today... not sure if traffic is causing massive delays, the town was quite busy when i was there earlier.

27161/2/4 are all reported to be in service today, while 27165 has also appeared on the road although so far only spotted NIS. As such, this means 7 of the 9 unbranded examples have now be used in passenger service and 8 of the 9 are ready for public service.

And you wonder why Stockton sent 16833/9 and keep 16834/6 - the better two remained at their home.

With thanks to Richard Smiles - 16839 is now officially withdrawn due to Chassis Corrosion.

We've got another one!
Do I even need to check the IP and e-mail address of this one, or can I just assume..?

Shall I ban all of these accounts and keep your original one, Ian?

There's no sign of the message I sent in reply to your comment about me 'forgetting' my password. Hasn't it sent? Same happened earlier when I replied about SORN.

Like a number of others, your account(s) are having difficulty with quoting. This seems to be an issue with some web browsers, following on from the upgrade of our forum software.
If you want to carry on using the web browser you're using at present, I'd recommend that you avoid using the 'reply' button as your posts won't come out. I don't know the reason why this happens, but it's only happening with a few accounts.

I'll type it again.

I said, I haven't been FORGETTING my password. There's something wrong with your systems. Every time the library logs me out, next time I try to log in it says the password is incorrect, but it isn't as I always use the same one. then if I request a password reset it either doesn't arrive, in the case of Yahoo, or, in the case of Hotmail, it arrives but the new password you sent doesn't work either!
