(27 Jan 2014, 12:55 pm)aureolin Has anyone seen the newly branded X66 bendy today? From what I've seen, I've a feeling its VOR with a Vyking covering its duties...

(27 Jan 2014, 3:43 pm)CatsFast101 I've seen two Solars on 29's; 4943 and something else.

(27 Jan 2014, 4:03 pm)Dan That will be down to a number of the Cadets being at Peterlee.

(27 Jan 2014, 4:08 pm)Michael I thought the 29 was Solar worked anyway.. or it's supposed to be.

Shouldn't matter if theirs a few cadet's away

(27 Jan 2014, 4:11 pm)Dan That was originally speculated on the forum, but I undertand that the Cadets are to be allocated officially.

(27 Jan 2014, 10:41 am)andreos1 They will be questions we are all wanting to know the answers to and no doubt we have all had a sleepless night wondering - but:

* Did Malarkey find Ingeus? YES

* Did he get there on time? NO (10 Minutes Late)

* Which buses did he use to get there? X1 to Wrekenton then Sainsbury's Free Bus

* Did he have red or brown sauce on his bacon sandwich? Didn't have time for Bacon Sandwich as I was running late having over slept, And I don't like Red or Brown Sauce

* Is the course full of things he has done already? No Idea as i'm getting Transferred over to Sunderland instead, so my start date has changed to Next Monday, so that I don't have catch up on over a Weeks work

* Did he manage to catch sight of the new x66 branding? Yes and it looks Pretty Epic - Saltmeadows Bus Driver showed me a Photo on his Camera whilst both took photos of 5390 with it's White Blind on the Saltwell Park 53 at Gateshead Interchange

(27 Jan 2014, 5:00 pm)CatsFast101 I'm sure one of GNE representatives said this, rather than forum discussion/speculation. However, i imagine if Solars are to be allocated; Solars will probably be considered as the best choice to cover on branded services (60, 35, 20, 2A/2C) so cadets will fill the void on the 26.
Also there's only just say enough cadets to match PVRs of 29/38.
