Ah looks like it will interwork with the S1 most of the time then

One of the darts and the enviro were working the Morpeth services today. The other dart was on the former spirit buses 15 service.
I see the Saturday service via Scots Gap has ended. Maybe they'll use the decker for the Morpeth services

Cheers - and maybe yeah - no idea why they've bought that decker. Many people on them? The T1 seems a odd service.

The T1 seemed quite busy but this was around 3ish when the schols come out. I'm quite puzzled about the decker as well given that most of their routes are subsidised by the council with low passenger numbers.

Ah right hopefully the passengers pick up on all of the services then.

The T1 is an innovative service as it visits the new housing estate and specialist hospital at St George's. These can only be reached via a steep bank. It will be interesting to see what passenger numbers are like. Hopefully they will publicise the route. Lancaster Park puts them in competition with Arrival.

PCL are using the North East Coach Travel yard at Seaton Burn as a parking place in addition to their main Ryton depot.

RE: PCL Travel - Tom - 19 Dec 2016
V470GBF was on the T1 today - was quite a few passengers on commenting on how good the service is, the bus is decent inside but doesn't have a ticket machine for some reason.
MX07LBG was on the M1 with a working blind eventually!

I wonder why whatever bus uses the 15 doesn't go there. PCL just seem to ditch it on any layby they find around Alnwick or Rothbury.

I'm guessing it does as it starts on the M1 on the morning at 0700 from Morpeth, and does a M1 back to Morpeth at 1810 from Thropton.

Are explorers valid on the 15 and M1?

I don't think so, a child single is only £2 on each service anyway so not too bad.

The NEB fleet list for PCL Travel requires a bit of a update.
Entered the fleet since last update:
MX07LBG - Enterprise Plasma/Plaxton Primo - White Rural Link.
V470GBF - Optare Solo - Green Rural Link M1 branded.
MH06WCU - LDV Convoy - The Eden liveried
LK03GHN - Dennis Trident/Plaxton President.
PN06FJC - Mercedes Sprinter - has left I believe.
X62CHJ - Volvo B6BLE/Wright Crusader - think it's still with PCL Travel but I think it's going to be scrapped.
