The last 939 this afternoon was operated by a taxi minibus rather than a proper bus, is this normal?

A question that covers this operator and others, besides GNE and Arriva what other Nexus bus liveried buses are operated by the independents?

Gateshead Central Taxis' boards of service 939 both interwork with 'taxi bus' services. I believe the morning journey interworks with service TB10 and the evening journey interworks with service TB14. Go North East's board stipulates the requirement of a low-floor Euro 5 vehicle with a minimum capacity of 23 passengers. This interworks with services 29, 90 and 92.

Independent operator fleet lists are available here.

Had permission by member of Staff in the Depot to take the Photo.

Anyone know if the Optare MetroCity Demonstrator is out in service?

I saw a plain white ADL Enviro200 near Heworth Interchange today, so I'd guess so.
