(17 Aug 2016, 11:42 pm)Brian13 Who does the last 90 then. I know jim hughes operate the 1801 from metrocentre.

Go North East i guess as the JH journey is the only one on the Nexus timetable that is marked as being another operator.


RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Andreos1 - 22 Aug 2016

Does anyone have any further detail about the new premises GCT are looking to build?

Says on the Metrocentre timetable the 1831 is ran by Nexus. It doesn't on the digital versions though. Never seems to turn up either

After all of the hard work painting and power polishing the Streetlite following the incident that required bodywork replacement. It appears to have been involved in another incident with scuffs and paint damage to the front bumper and the off side edge just in front of the driver. Although not serious as it is still in service.

It was involved in a crash not long ago on Beaconlough bank whilst operating the 68 towards Wrekenton. Car pulled into the path of the bus.

I've seen the architects plans for the depot.

A big step up from the current situation.


RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - EL1TE - 02 Sep 2016

Now that GCT have ex-GNE 5157, what will it be allocated to?

Probably one of the school services. One of the less popular ones or a reserve as I think they just have enough deckers to cover the scholars services
