(10 Aug 2014, 8:42 pm)tyresmoke They were right about it being ambitious! I believe the launch for the X10/X11 is planned for the end of this month now...You'd think, with it being a new website they would alter the information so that it isn't, at the very least, incorrect. Anyone that uses the X15 will know that it isn't MAX (obviously the X10/11 has some MAX vehicles already)
Even Yorkshire haven't finished their E400s for the 268 yet!

"The Wright Endurance is a step-entrance, single-deck bus body built by Wrightbus between 1993 and 1997. The Endurance was superseded by low-floor bodies, the Liberator on Volvo B10L chassis and the Renown on Volvo B10BLE chassis." Arriva don't have any endurance a do they?.....

They don't - they do have Wright Renown bodied B10BLEs however, which also aren't DDA. Presumably due to the width of the gangway between the front wheel arches.

On the Teen card application leaflet, it states that it has to be posted in and not to be handed in.

When l did the teen application for my daughter, it states that only postal will be accepted, otherwise I would of went down to Stockton and handed it in in person. you can try and see what their say.

If they won't take it, go outside and put it in their letter box

(12 Aug 2014, 10:29 am)RM2186 If they won't take it, go outside and put it in their letter boxAye, they can't stop me
, only problem is I'll need a pen to write the other envelope out and I don't really want to wander too far around there by myself... As at the moment, if they let me hand it in, I was going to ask them if they'd mind contacting me when it's ready and I'd collect it again as I'm in Blyth for the next week anyway...
RE: Arriva North East - Latest - mb134 - 12 Aug 2014
Anyone on here just photographed 7615 on the X13 at Regent Centre?
Also, when handing my teen card in they told me that I had to post it to them...

You should apply for a Key Card if you go out on regular trips - £3.75 for a day ticket.
