RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2019 - OrangeArrow49 - 06 May 2019 (05 May 2019, 11:59 pm)Multi21 Because I'm a huge Mark Webber fan... Google it! I thought it had to be a reference to Mark Webber's "Multi21, Seb, Multi21" quote from 2013. Stupid Vettel not following team orders! Webber deserved the win. RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2019 - Cock Robin - 06 May 2019 (05 May 2019, 2:42 pm)streetdeckfan The issue I think is ANE mostly operates in the two least densely populated counties, so with a lot of their routes being quite long and they don't necessarily have the passenger numbers to support them, it makes it quite difficult to make a profit. It also operates in some of the areas with lowest car ownership in the country.

Went out after that post had been written RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2019 - L469 YVK - 07 May 2019 What are Arriva playing at? Posting changes for the Rhyl area on the North East Twitter / Facebook pages yet they haven't even bothered to release the North East changes happening unlike GNE who released their changes back in April. Complete and utter contempt for passengers and I sincerely hope whoever gets their hands on Arriva (whether it's bought as one or sold in parts) can somehow turn it around. Gone right downhill over the past 3 or so years. RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2019 - RobinHood - 08 May 2019 (07 May 2019, 6:22 pm)L469 YVK What are Arriva playing at?

Complete and utter contempt for passengers and I sincerely hope whoever gets their hands on Arriva (whether it's bought as one or sold in parts) can somehow turn it around. The issue lies centrally. The local operating companies have had their website and core social media access removed and as a result, all Comms have to go via Central teams - hence the balls up today. The local teams are literally having their hands tied behind their backs and still expected to deliver, at the same time, a vast proportion have been made redundant and a number of roles in local head office are vacant.

To be fair I think it has improved in some areas. Lost mileage at Redcar is much reduced.

The driver was also sticking bits of newspaper between the gaps in the assault screen on the door to stop that from rattling Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2019 - BusLoverMum - 14 May 2019 (14 May 2019, 7:19 pm)cbma06 The driver was also sticking bits of newspaper between the gaps in the assault screen on the door to stop that from rattling The rattles in them are awful. I'm not going to knock it, though. When one lands on the 64, it really feels like an upgrade from the E200s, in terms of noise and comfort. I received a phone call from one of the boys' schools when on tha 64, once and I know my hearing isn't the best, but I literally couldn't hear a thing above the engine noise.
