Very welcome addition too in the sense that the WiFi blobs have been fitted to the front and nearside. Nothing on the offside though (as displayed on that photo).
Is 5217 on loan to Hexham from Riverside as I have seen it around here for the last few days on various Hexham based services

(25 Jan 2018, 5:49 pm)Dan That's probably quite optimistic - 'as soon as possible' is probably a bit closer to reality, but it'll probably be March time at the earliest before everything is changed over to the new style.
Still at Stanley, on the Cathedral Bus today.
Handful of buses at Deptford and Washington have already been updated ahead of this weekend's service changes.
The majority of services operated by Deptford and Washington will have the displays updated in the new style from Sunday. Handful haven't been done just yet, and none at Peterlee so far. Chester-le-Street have had a couple updated to the new style and again these will be updated from Sunday. Riverside have had a few more changed over, and all of the services which were trialled originally have had the fonts updated into the same style as the Angel buses.
5264 has the 'Recharge your batteries' tagline, and 5337 has the 'It's our people' tagline.
Saltmeadows Road are now applying the feature symbols to buses undergoing fleet livery repaint - these obviously being some of the very first ones getting done. Anything that's been missed over the past few months should be done by the external branding company as and when they catch general vinyl repairs over the next few weeks.
Yes, it's on loan to Hexham.

Just wondering if it is safe to carry on driving a merc when it’s back end is nearly on the ground and the front of the bus looks like an aircraft carriers take off ramp pointing skywards. I was on a crusader 27 in Hebburn this afternoon,it was scraping the tops of the road humps,must be damaging something under there I told the driver,he reckons the suspension was not working properly,and he seemed happy enough to carry on driving,that’s why I ask the question,is it safe to do so.
