Aye that name rings a bell, you could be right.

Northumbria Bus and Coach - That's the link to his Facebook page, Tom.
After some sweet talking I've managed to convince a FORTH Arriva depot to get involved this year! We have potentially 6 vehicles attending this year!

Great news. Arriva have had an impressive turnout the past few years, and it's good to see it becoming bigger for 2016.

Frequenta solo or X66/X67 MAX pulsar

I think management asked for saloons and deckers, so Solos ruled out? Plus the Solos haven't been refurbished and their seats look rather tired.

You'll struggle to get a Frequenta 7 Solo there as there is only one branded and it's having to have it sorted out.
Could potentially get a Darlington example, a 11 reg 9/10 branded example would be best as they look better, especially internally.
Here's a thought - why don't you all wait until Sunday and see for yourselves what the lads from Arriva take. Rather than spoil the element of surprise

Well, people will turn up early and report what turns up anyway to be fair.

I'm in agreement here - nowt like spoiling it...
I can confirm from my Dad's sources Rothbury Motors are bringing a tri-axle DAF coach

Might see you then Gary as I'll probs be getting on the same stop as you.
If anyone wants to say hi, I'm wearing a burgundy jacket and blue checked shirt. Will arrive at the MetroCentre on the X22 at around 10:30.

I'm coming a bit later as I have football in the morning, I'll probably get there for 1 ish.
Unfortunately on the way here I passed what appeared to be one of the older vehicles broken down A1 Southbound.
Horrible weather today - will still head over when I get up though, hopefully it'll improve by then. Haven't got my camera though as I'm at my grandmas and I cba to go home and get it. To be fair it's a nightmare getting pics anyway.
