RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Storx - 25 Jun 2021 (25 Jun 2021, 5:42 am)citaro5284 Stagecoach have tried serving Cobalt from South Tyneside via the Tunnel and it was withdrawn as nobody was using it. It's still running isn't it? Certainly still on the timetable at least anyway. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Chris 1 - 25 Jun 2021 (24 Jun 2021, 5:34 pm)Rapidsnap Been told off a GCT driver that a number of contracts have been surrendered due to staff resource issues. Routes involved are 18/18A, 319, 85 / 86 and number of work services. Possibly a few others but not sure how much truth is in it. Apparently the 319 is going to go to Heworth too hence why I'm not sure. Phoenix is to run the 18/18A apparently and GNE the 319. Coincidentally (?), Phoenix were advertising for staff on Facebook the other day RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - V514DFT - 25 Jun 2021 (25 Jun 2021, 5:42 am)citaro5284 Stagecoach have tried serving Cobalt from South Tyneside via the Tunnel and it was withdrawn as nobody was using it.Its a shame cus i think it would of been a great service,i dont think it had time to establish itself properly before Covid hit, which probably contributed to its demise,maybe they'll try again in the future,maybe they'll bring back the 14,and try that to the Cobalt,who knows RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Micheal Aaron - 25 Jun 2021 Nexus website updates 99A withdraw 27th June 931 withdrawn 27th June 939A withdrawn 27th June RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Big O - 25 Jun 2021 Nexus website confirms a sizeable amount of loses for GCT although they do gain the Heworth to Nightingale contract.

It only says "until further notice".. so god knows how long for but its still a massive loss for them. --------------- I would think GNE will be allocating a Solo or even a Sprinter to the 99. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Big O - 25 Jun 2021 Wonder what happens to the bulk of E200 MMCs they’ve leased? RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Micheal Aaron - 25 Jun 2021 Possible just sit there or all go to NT routes or whatever they have left Looks like the MS and SNS are going to be ran together bit like the MS & CS now by GNE Surprised it is until futher notice. Like is this just until they get new drivers or something or nexus hand these contract to other companies as this all seems rushed as they all change from this Sunday RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Michael - 25 Jun 2021 (25 Jun 2021, 5:00 pm)Micheal Aaron Possible just sit there or all go to NT routes or whatever they have left It says from the 25th June but then you scroll down and it gives you different dates... so not which one is right. Due to the last minute changes - nothing is on the GNE site or app yet. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Micheal Aaron - 25 Jun 2021 Wonder if this is until nexus hand the contract out properly Or gct get new drivers RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - S813 FVK - 25 Jun 2021 (25 Jun 2021, 5:06 pm)Michael Due to the last minute changes - nothing is on the GNE site or app yet. The timetables section has been updated to show the evening/sunday journeys and 99/939 in the main timetable list.

Literally only checked about 10 minutes ago.... haha RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - idiot - 25 Jun 2021 GnE have done well in the end lol. Gateshead Central Taxis - Dan - 25 Jun 2021 (25 Jun 2021, 4:43 pm)Big O Wonder what happens to the bulk of E200 MMCs they’ve leased? Nothing - it’s only really evening and Sunday work being lost, so the buses will still be running during the day.

Fair enough pal, you should tell Martijn he needs to bid for the 335 lol! That service has a lot of potential and one well used. I’ve always thought it should be merged with the K1 to provide a direct through service to brownhills. RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Micheal Aaron - 26 Jun 2021 Wonder what GNE would use if they took over the 335 RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - GNE6312 - 26 Jun 2021 (26 Jun 2021, 1:33 am)Micheal Aaron Wonder what GNE would use if they took over the 335The little Coasters optares prehaps RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - V514DFT - 26 Jun 2021 GNE have had the 335 in part,it would be nice to see them gain it,but unlikely |
