(07 Sep 2019, 11:51 am)Michael Any signs of the new buses arriving yet?I think Martijn mentioned something on Twitter about them arriving in October

Believe they are coming this month and in service at start of October
E400s will arrive 1st, service changes for X30/X31 on 29/09 so that might be linked Streetdecks more likely November, although no internal briefing on the date.

(07 Sep 2019, 4:25 pm)Michael What are the changes?, nothing on the GNE site yet?, and 29/9 is not that long away
Edit: looking in the upcoming changes thread, the 6 and 6A are also changing on that date with the 704 getting withdrawn
To be honest I don’t know, nothing mentioned either

I'd say the changes to the 6 & 6A will be the later journeys being re-timed as several users have picked up on the later journeys from the Metrocentre being badly timed for shift patterns.

If that’s the case with the 6a, they inter work with the X30 so they’ll need to change as well

If that’s the case with the 6a, they inter work with the X30 so they’ll need to change as well
At most, the X30 would be re-timed by 5 minutes towards Stanley and 10 minutes towards Newcastle. Maybe something like this:
Newcastle(6A): 18:55
Stanley(6A): 20:08
Stanley(6A): 20:15
Newcastle(6A): 21:24
Newcastle(X30): 21:30
Stanley(X30): 22:06
Stanley(X30): 22:15
Newcastle(X30): 22:51
Newcastle(6A): 23:00
Stanley(6A): 00:08

What fleet number will it gain, and is it a permanent move or just temporary until new buses arrive allowing the appropriate cascades?
(08 Sep 2019, 10:26 am)Michael Martijn Gilbert has confirmed on Twitter that EY coach 91 was brought back lastt night and its going to Deptford depot for new school contacts.

Somewhere in East Durham perhaps? Peterlee/Seaham area?
County Coaches had Headways stuff in the past and full size coaches were used on those contracts.
