North East Buses

Lovely  

Still on Easter break from uni but I still find myself camping in the library doing assignments. I'm beginning to get quite stressed over them.

He's made even more posts in this thread than I have.

Although I have made considerably more posts than the next person below me. Think I need to stop making so many posts in this thread.

Yeah... I like moaning but not as much as you two

I've decided to wear my blue coat today. It's not bloody winter from 15:00

=(, that's shit, hopefully something comes up quick again

Currently having a mental breakdown in Durham.

Ballsed up most of my photos, and some old prick wanted the whole fucking footpath to himself and pretty much forced me into oncoming traffic at rush hour.

I am totally losing it now and I am no further forward at sorting my anger out and it is getting worse and I feel if I don't get proper help soon I am going to have a mental breakdown or I am going to go to prison for smashing someone's face in or just being mental.

Sorry if this is boring you all again but I am losing it now.

At the moment, I find it best if you go home.

Good news: I have a photo of 1597.

Bad news: thanks to some old prick parking illegally pretty much all the photos are in the sun.

LED isn't clear again and we have another camera shy driver.

I think Hanover must have changed the way they build the LED destination displays, as it seems to be newer vehicles which most people struggle to catch the LEDs displaying nicely on.

I see it on Flickr all the time when scrolling through photographs. See below:

I only really have a problem on StreetLite's, happened again this afternoon with 1597, happened last week with 1590 (slightly surprised that got 27 faves) and it also happened a few months back with 1575.

Although it also happened with Sapphire E400 7534 on Sunday although that shot was really rushed thanks to the driver on the 5A/19 and I'm surprised it turned out as well as it did with how rushed it was.

So that was you that I could spy wandering around Millburngate.  

I recall having a similar problem. Looking through my photos, and I can see I have it on the 14 reg batch of E400s in Ashington, and the 14 reg batch of Streetlites for Teesside.

Ha ha - yeah, probably better that you didn't go up to us as I am still full of cold.

Swear someone was staring at me whilst I was stood in Durham Bus Station, even though I had the camera in the bag and was just stood behind the wall looking at my phone.

I think it's more of an issue with DSLR Cameras as I've never had any problems with my point and shot

I have to say I had little problems with StreetLite's with my old point and shoot with StreetLite's.

Might also be a case of what mode the camera is in with DSLR cameras as I seem to be having problems with StreetLite's Dan didn't seem to have problems with his photos of them the other day.

I was going to try changing modes but not many passengers were getting on the 24 and thanks to some arse stopping in the road where I was going to stand to get a shot out of the sun I had to run further up Millburngate for the shot.

Can't ever recall having the issue myself, either, and I have a Nikon D5100 (same camera as both aureolin and Jimmi).

I'm guessing it's a manual setting on cameras that doesn't agree with new Hanover destination displays.

Looking through my photos, it seems to struggle with a shutter speed at anything over 1/600. The shots I put up, and the ones Jimmi put up, were either 1/1000 or 1/1250.

That explains that, then! Most Point & Shoot users use automatic settings that tend to opt for lower shutter speeds.

I tend to stick to 1/400 in full sun.

Seen it on the GNE FB page, don't want to sound like a nob, but the driver should of continued, if he fell off and got killed or seriously hurt.. then its hes own fault, no doubt hes family would want "money".............. by his profile he looks like a fireman............

I agree with you there. The family/solicitors will find a way of how to get onto the top of a bus, then completely smash GNE. 

If it was my company, I would literally tell the family to fuck off.

Defiantly, i hate people when they moan about the drivers taking breaks, he needs them to! 

No doubt the complainer is a do gooder!


This comment: I hope this image makes arriva change there policies, and instead of drivers having to have there breaks stood at a bus stop, they have to take the bus back to depo and have a break in a office/coffee room in comfort, just to cause delays in services. To annoy mindless folk like her, who is clearly a compulsive complainer!



I feel like a swearing mood today!
