Bizarre routing decision on the 554. The PM journeys don't serve Quorum but Benton Lane.

Huge queue of people waiting in Quorum  due to large gaps in the 555 and GNE miss them all. Utterly pointless service.

My workplace is pretty near the bus stop but others aren't going to trail past a bus stop inside the park to a main road with no shelter

I'm guessing you maybe have to pay to service Quorum? Not sure on any other reason for nexus doing it!

Go North East are saying to passengers on Facebook that they're unable to serve Quorum due to it being private land.

5387 is the third Versa to be repainted for the Quaylink PVR increase:

Didn't 554 when ran by Arriva serve the Quorum, I left Sitel on the 15th July so I haven't been up that way in the past 2 Weeks.

Who will be the first to get a pic of it.........

I've heard it's ex-East Yorkshire Motor Services. Rumour says it is to be used on the TENs.

I have not seen it as I left work before it arrived, but they also have a couple of Wrights bodied ones as well I think.

I wasn't sure if they would go for the same one that's all. BP15 OLH also made a brief stop at Bensham before going to EYMS so I thought they may want to have seen what it was like in service.

Guessing Arriva were allowed in as part of the 555 contract.

Surprised at Quorum charging considering how green they claim to be.


I'll just vaguely hope whatever is visiting is for the Angel...and then back to reality

Forgive me, as I don't know Quorum well, but don't Arriva's X7/X8 services now serve the main road? Whereas whatever they were before the Max launch, used to swing round inside the park?

Big'un says that's not a demonstrator but BF65 WHZ is.

None of the EYMS ex-demonstrators are proper demonstrators anymore. They have all been purchased by the company (the ones on the X46 has been fitted with WiFi).
