Someone has nailed it in the head. Replacement bus sent to another route and someone asked why don't they do it on the 6. Someone has replied saying its because its a nexus route and they will be fined. Spot on.

With the wrightbus issue maybe plans are being delayed, remember 31 buses to juggle around is a large number for any company

Does anyone know which depots run the 556, 819, 820 & 821 scholars services at St Joseph's in Hebburn. These services never track on bustimes.org

Don't know if this is the same for the other E200 but 5498 has a white roof. Anyone know the reason for this?

I remember reading somewhere that having a white roof increases the efficiency of the HVAC system onboard, so in turn reduces fuel consumption

Ah very good. Yes white does reflect more sunlight

I think Hughes have the St Joseph's contract now

Do the lights along the sides of 5498 work? I've yet to see them on apart from when it was at Bus and Coach.

It's coming soon apparently, but knowing GNE that probably means it won't show up!


Also looks like the E400s will have them as well, so maybe they're just waiting for them to launch to push out a software update.

It was earlier at least, passed it on Market Street this morning at 0850 with hazards on and a Saltwell Park Streetlite behind it.
