RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2019 - Kuyoyo - 19 Oct 2019
2818/39 have returned to Durham this morning. Stockton therefore have 2815/22 in exchange
RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2019 - Ryland - 19 Oct 2019
With the up coming time table changes approach I have a couple of questions
any buses that will be definitely withdrawn ?
Any transfers due to happen

Suspect 1759 and 4516 might finally come off with the winter X93 starting. 4516's test is due.

Normally however, 4516 is sent out on an early 64 board (it's been used on Redcar's 5A working in the past) and a Temsa or even a Streetlite works its allocated turn. Of course, the argument should have been that when Stockton's PVR dropped back in July, one of the released Pulsars should have cascaded. Of course, Ashington ended up requiring an extra bus with the lose of the E400, Stockton needed to retain one to cover for 1417 (and subsequently retained it for the PVR increase with the S1) and Durham were just in need.</p>

I believe there is an E400 coming from outside Arriva to replace the accident damaged one written off

They'll need three buses less at Redcar. They didn't lose any when the two peak summer X93s came off - they kept the two then to cover the college runs.

(18 Oct 2019, 7:53 am)OW1762 7423 has no tree guard on, looks like its come off, quite concerning seeing as it's on the 64 which has plenty of low trees on it going through newton hall

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but it appears that Belmont have had a bit of an NSA update. The 6 has been updated to the new Sapphire branding and also a local female accent. The 56 has also finally gained NSAs, some 3+ years after the Solos gained the systems...
