(04 Nov 2016, 5:21 pm)S813 FVK But for most of the day (longer than peak hours) Monday to Friday, buses will be every 12 minutes. I think it would be best to change the frequency on the branding although your point regarding Saturdays is still valid.

The frequency remains at every 7/8 minutes at peak times on weekdays - in my eyes, this would be the best frequency to promote.

It wouldn't be wrong to promote this frequency, if the words "up to" were included.

Nice to see it back at Deptford, i think the brand will turn a few heads.

What will it be allocated to?


RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - November 2016 - Tom - 04 Nov 2016

Is this a temporary transfer or permanent? 

If permanent what is likely to take its place?

It'll be temporary until the AD122 re-starts in March, then it should go back to Hexham. It'll probables replace a MPD at Deptford though.

I suppose providing the 'up to' was there, which it is, it would perfectly fine to advertise the mentioned frequency. I was just thinking that it would be best to advertise the frequency that is operated under the most.

Mint, least we'll have spares but then Percy Main won't have spares for the Blue Arrow.

And only 2 spares for the 1. Plenty of B7s on the 1 and 11 then, great! More moaning people.

The B10's should also be going from Percy Main too unless that's changed with Deptford getting the 2 Scania's.

I would think the B10s would stay to be honest - for now at least until replacements can be found for the 2 Scanias.
