RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Dan - 30 Jan 2015
(22 Jan 2015, 9:30 pm)Dan I've updated our fleet lists to remove all of the loanees and add the Solos and Presidents - I make it 26!
This is before you start including their various Renault minibuses, which have in the past appeared on normal public service work as a last resort.
It seems Gateshead Central Taxis' van-type minibus fleet is also on the increase - stored at their depot near Heworth - I can make out the following registrations:
- Renault NA10AVC, NK58DNN, NK57GGO, NA57LGJ, NK06LOJ, CN55EXR, NK54KTO,
- Peugeot MD14JVA
- Fiat NU64YCV, NX14KHF, and another example
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - park5354 - 30 Jan 2015
(22 Jan 2015, 8:24 pm)citaro5284 Well according to their Operators Licence they have a licence for 20 vehicles as shown below spread over 2 sites.
The Jarrow site no longer seems to used, and the Holly Hill site is NOT the one on Stoneygate Lane. It is the one at bottom of Holly Hill at Sunderland Road Junction.
Just guessing, but I wonder if the Stoneygate site is not registered. Also there seems to be a decker left at a site on Chain Bridge in Blaydon.

I don't think a vehicle has to be left overnight on premises at the operating centre? Just has to be registered as operating from a centre with a valid licence?

Providing I've read it correctly - anything over 8 seats has to be registered as a PSV vehicle and form part of an Operating License.
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - roar - 31 Jan 2015
To be fair they could own any amount of buses they wish as long as they only operate a maximum of 20 in service at any one time.
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - gtom - 01 Feb 2015
Be interesting to see if Nexus have a contingency plan...just in case

I like to think we'd see Kingsley's ex-Lothian deckers on Taxibus routes....

Have to say I wonder what Kingsley's are up to as very few of their deckers are actually on the road since they lost most of their contracts...

Any idea on how the public enquiry went?
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - GuyParkRoyal - 19 Feb 2015
Central Taxis Gateshead now have their licence on a single site at Stoneygate Lane NE10 0HJ with authorisation for 28 vehicles. Holly Hill and Albert Road sites are no longer part of the authorisation.
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - GuyParkRoyal - 19 Feb 2015
The seating capacity of LT02ZZD & LT02ZZR differs from the information on the NEB Fleet list the capacity is 73 (45/28) plus 25 standing places.
