There's a double decker on the 24 with a coloured max front, seen at oakerside heading to Hartlepool at about 08:30, couldn't get ID, didn't have max lettering on front.

7474 on the 306 leaving Newcastle about 9:45am this morning. But more interestingly, there was an X8 using a Coastliner 306 bus in Cramlington about a half hour earlier.

How does a Jesmond bus end up on a Blyth route? Or is this way more common than I expect?

One of the silver NHS Optare Solos is on the X12 shuttles today.

Incident is such an understatement. There's been a tree blocking the great north road. Cleared, now.
