RE: Fleet Changes - Rapidsnap - 09 Dec 2021

Optare Versa 8304 has been sold to Midland Classic where it will become their number 41.

Guess that means the Versas on the 49rota are being replaced by the Scania CN230UB OmniCity from Washington

There are still enough Versa surely from 8305-8318?

Don't think it makes much sense in putting the Euro 6 Scania OmniCity onto a route which doesn't go into Newcastle..?


RE: Fleet Changes - Rapidsnap - 09 Dec 2021

Ah right, it was implying it had be brought by Midland Classic according to their facebook page.

Only other routes I can think are 6/12/12A/33/33A/57

Could be for the 25.

More than likely going onto anything until the new electrics turn up so they can then be withdrawn. No point sending the Streetlite's to Riverside to then send them to Washington in a few months time. Allocations are allover the shop atm at Riverside.

Streetlite's are meant to be on the 6/12/12A as they advertised NSA and charging unless that's gone out the window already.

More than the likely 8326 - 8328 will go for the 25 with 8307 - 8309 acting as spares. A few boards are Streetdeck now I believe anyway, there's more than enough buses there for the 25/28/28A plus 34.

I wonder if they will re instate 692 to it's normal bus role and that would be the 4 replacements for the ones withdrawn.

698 to 701 have been withdrawn now with moving 638 & 651/652 meaning only one more needs to join the fleet

That was quick, where have they gone?


RE: Fleet Changes - OrangeArrow49 - 12 Dec 2021

Not sure if this is the best place to put it, but what's happening with the allocation for the 74 for the Clean Air Zone in Newcastle? New buses or upgrades to make the Solos compliant?


RE: Fleet Changes - Train8261 - 13 Dec 2021

6377 moved to Chester-le-Street and is on the X21

5378/5379 look to have moved to Hexham as them both being on the X84/5
