Vyking 3966 has arrived as well.
Olympian 3818, Poppy Bus Solar 4949 as well.
I'll be down within the next half-hour or so. I'll be driving a Vauxhall Vectra and wearing, probably, a blue hoodie.

Anyone on 142084 which is departing Heworth now.
I am on 4935 on the X22 now - ugh!
5409 is on the other 14/X22 board so should be on the 1235 X22 from the MetroCentre.
Too thick and fast for me to make a note now! Anyone undecided about having a look out, I'd recommend It!

You'll probably see me on the way in. Perched outside.
Now just a couple of minutes outside Metrocentre.

Saw PTE 341 going along Askew Road.
I'm in Leyland Olympian 1005 F805FAO running a tad late going via Newcastle Central Station firstly. 10 mins off Denton Burn roundabout
Just me who finds all the Durham - Birtley and beyond services boring as hell.
After what feels like an eternity 4935 is finally on the A1.
Hoping to take a few photos but just haven't been motivated recently to take any.
6124 & 6118 have turned up with 6124 only having Brighton destinations.
For reference I'm wearing black tracksuit bottoms and a grey/white hoodie, please say hello
I'll just be wearing my normal weekend clothes. Pair of jeans with a blue top, grey jumper and a black coat to keep my phone and stuff in.
This may be a stupid question but...
anything from Stagecoach?
I should be easy to spot as I am wearing an orange Fred Perry Polo Shirt and blue jacket.
Feel free to say hi.
In light of all of the dating/meeting apps out there - such as tinder, grindr and pof, maybe it would be worth doing a NEBr app for events like these...

Fozz might find a MrsFozz after all!
Really been overwhelmed by the rally today, been an absolute treat seeing the Omnidekkas, the new Streetlites and Red Kites!
Thoroughly enjoyable day so far. Lots of unexpected buses on display with plenty doing rides out. I've been on 3818 and the Northumbria Delta so far.
Impressed with GNE's Red Kite design on the B9TLs too. Citaro5284 was right about the red kite on the back of It!
Yeah I agree it's been a great day! Fab turnout by GNE, and was also happy to see Weardale there.
The Red Kite looks fantastic as does the C&C.
Aye, an enjoyable day all round.
It was nice to meet some of you, finally able to put faces to names!
We did lose Malarkey though. One can only wonder whether he's stuck in the Metrocentre bogs.
Gutted i couldn't make it...was going to see HMS Ocean, until it was posted that it was leaving today instead of tomorrow.................. was to late to make it to the Metrocentre!
I quite enjoyed it. I wasn't there for long, arriving at about 11:15 and leaving at around 12:30.
My Dad and brothers decided to tag along with me, so I wasn't able to introduce myself to any of you, which is a shame, but never mind. At least my identity can remain a mystery to the majority of you for a little while longer...

More like you and the rest of the NEB Gathering ditched me and Dan, I left with Dan just after 1pm and got the X66 to Gateshead, where he then ditched me to get on the Metro, leaving me to wait 10 Minutes for the X1 and participating in doing a Passenger Focus Survey.
I was with Bazza and Lee.
