News/Pictures/Discussion regarding Phoenix Coaches to be posted here.

Aha! News already.

On 26th December 2012, Phoenix Coaches will operate service 53A for [from what I can make out] one day only. It is a service between North Shields and Cramlington and goes via the world.

Soo, if any of you are hardcore bus enthusiasts like me who have nothing to do on Boxing Day, you've got yourself something planned now! Big Grin

53A I spoke of in the OP:

I didn't know at the time of the OP that the 53A was an Arriva service, and Nexus had paid for this service to be operated rather than no service to run at all!

If it helps, MV07EXU is usually used on the 333 Ferrylink but if its un available then NJ11EXJ is usually used. They did have an E200 demo in use a few months ago. Don't forget the Byker ASDA services run with the Asda Solo. They also run the A2 in Ashington, 845 in Blyth and probably a few others I've forgotten Smile

New here recently is MPD KX06LXO which has been operating the Byker Asda free buses, though I reckon it's only a loan vehicle.

Phoenix Coaches' "ASDA Rider" branded 905 (MX57CBF) "Janet Patricia" saw unusual use on North Shields Ferry service 333 today.
Anyone have any idea what was on the Byker ASDA shuttle instead of 905?

Lots of van based 'buses' there.

To anwer the question posed previously and keeping with the theme created by a previous incumbent of the 23, I guess Pheonix will put another can based 'bus' on the 23 Wink
