It had been said the coast & country buses were to enter service on sunday. However if stanley haven't got their full allocation, then a red spare will need to be used (from tuesday) The bus we've been using will need to go back to saltmeadows for branding, or will it be done at chester?

Does anyone think there is any chance that the Coast and Country StreetLite's will be out on Tuesday?

Just thought I'd ask as I not sure what I am doing on Tuesday as I am thinking of doing something different.

I hate to rain on anyone's parade here, but you're all going to have a good 15 years to get shots of these vehicles. They won't be out for a week, and then disappear never to be seen again... Tongue

Most new vehicles enter service on Sundays. Dont know why but it seems to be a trend.

I think it might be easier if they put them out on a Monday (or this week Tuesday), because I think Passengers will use them during the weekday rather than a Sunday

There is a Sunday in every week? Suppose if the vehicles do enter service on Sunday they will be able to cover up any issues since they can just replace it with another branded vehicle.

(01 May 2015, 6:05 pm)G-CPTN There is an event at Herrington Country Park this coming Sunday (and Monday).
What buses would get me there/back (Corbridge).
I don't want to be marooned in Penshaw.

Thanks for the suggestions - I've just had a wobbler thrown to me, daughter wants to visit me . . .

So I might not be going.

It'll be easier for me to get to the MetroCentre on Monday for the bus rally.  Big Grin

The weather forecast for Sunday is for significant rain from early morning to late afternoon so it seems unlikely that I will bother, however, Monday has only slight rain very early morning, so I might swap days.

It is and it isnt tbh.  First day for driver rota's is a Saturday, but first day for mileage recording is a Sunday.

The worrying thing about that is, if they cant get that right, how on earth are they going to run bus services in the entire of Tyne and Wear?

I'm not sure one individuals incompetence/lack of knowledge, is too much to worry about.
Pretty sure I won't have been the only person to have been given duff info by customer facing representatives of any of the incumbents.
