They seem to have removed the options to contact online or via email from their website, sticking to telephone and post. I mean this is clearly the kind of forward thinking we're going to need for an enhanced partnership...
Great thank you!
I agree, it's pretty poor from Nexus.
Gateshead Central Taxis - Adrian - 16 Aug 2021
Nice bit of early running on the 73 this morning:
0322 on the 73 - https://bustimes.org/vehicles/286879?date=2021-08-16#journeys/158193958
0323 on the 83A* - https://bustimes.org/vehicles/286881?date=2021-08-16#journeys/158146373
* 83A ran as the 92 it would seem, so driver has probably forgotten to change the trip on their ETM

Great service as standard by GCT on the 41:
https://bustimes.org/vehicles/286861?date=2021-08-19#journeys/159430716
Three problems:
a) wrong route, omitted Wallsend Forum
b) operated extremely early, as much as 7 minutes.
c) didn't complete the route, omitted the Howdon-Wallsend section
Surely something has got to be done about them.
I emailed Nexus about my bad experience last week but have not yet got a response.

RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Train8261 - 20 Aug 2021
Ah I see. Wonder where it will go
RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - Train8261 - 26 Aug 2021
Nexus website confirmed that the 18/18A (ran by Stagecoach and GCT previously) operating by Phoenix atm will go to Go North east on a Sunday and evening

RE: Gateshead Central Taxis - GNE6312 - 07 Sep 2021
Today seen 2 E200MMCs running dead for the 145 this afternoon, nexus should have really gave the contract to an operator with sufficient deckers and/or coaches

Apparently L&B were meant to run the contracts they can't. Which is why they still have the MS/SNS so don't know what's happened with the school run
