There's been a 67 plate bus on the 701 recently, I'm not sure if it's a Streetlite or a Nu-Vibe though.

They've had that one since new, often on Team Valley Sainsbury's when I've seen in.


RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - RBZ 5459 - 14 Mar 2018

I understand that GCT have two new Mellor Bluebirds, 18-platers.

Photo posted on Facebook a few days ago identifies one as BF18YRW.

A little bit of digging on the DVLA Tax Checker confirms the other to be BF18YRX.


RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - RBZ 5459 - 24 Mar 2018

Another new one of GCT, SJ18USE

335 is Bluebird free today with the Enviro and Solo making an appearance
Rare to see anything other than a bluebird at all, never mind two buses covering.
