Go North East: Rare & Odd Workings 2022
Must say glad some people don't live in an area where Blyth operate. There'd be daily meltdowns over allocations and staff being sacked left, right and centre or Durham, Darlington or Stockton either while we're at it. There's just no attempt at all lately. Not that I really care as a bus is better than no bus imo.

Where are the graphites currently located??
Are the timetables going back to normal?
These 1 bus per hour on the 39 is ridiculous.

(20 Nov 2022, 12:56 am)Dan They are in use temporarily on scholars because GNE are short of school buses (due to delay with conversion and delivery of ex-London Volvo B9s, and high number of Metro Flow buses VOR for MOT). On weekends, they have a habit of cropping up on the 56.All timetables which were temporary cut? Or just some?. The streetdecks on 56 are a nice upgrade
The Graphites are currently mothballed at Sunderland.
The timetables will go back to normal when resource permits.

(25 Nov 2022, 6:36 pm)Unber43 Why on earth would you put single deckers X21/21 on black fridayNot ideal but any bus turning up on these services today proved to be a challenge, especially on the X21 with many trips being delayed as much as 45 mins on some journeys owing to traffic pretty much everywhere along the route, this led to journeys being cancelled, turned short or sent light to start somewhere along the route.
