North East Buses

What's the reasoning, do you know?

It seems odd that a vehicle route branded for the 'E' group of services would be allocated to service 30, when an example without route branding is allocated to the 'E' group of services.

I wonder if they interwork?

No, Service 30 interworks with a 10 to Jarrow at South Shields and vice versa when a 11 comes from Jarrow.

The 10 and 11 interwork with 30 only Monday to Saturday daytimes not Sundays.

Not sure on reason why 30 has a 277xx batch vehicle on a Sunday. I just noticed it late last year and think been every Sunday since.. I know someone else marked it as rare last Sunday also I think it was

That's normal for a Sunday as it depends where the non branded buses are parked in the depot as the RTC that operates the 30's also does 1's & 2's

Forgive my ignorance, but can't it be pre-planned where a branded vehicle is parked in the depot?

If a branded vehicle is required first thing for the E's on a Sunday, can't it be parked at the front on a Saturday night? Can't be too difficult if there are 16 of them?

We arrived on 4001/40 and left on 12076 iirc.

12077 on the 63 which inevitably means a normal E400 on 40 which is provided by 19673.

Also 28014 and 39707

Standard liveried Enviro 400 on 40.
