(02 Nov 2021, 7:27 pm)Dan As is 5281 (on loan to Hexham from Riverside currently).No better advertisment than one containing live content!
It's speculative at this stage, putting the feelers out.
(02 Nov 2021, 6:50 pm)Storx All depends on 5411 - 5419 transferring from Deptford to Riverside. As soon as they go then they'll be withdrawn. There's still 8294 - 8302, 8304 - 8306 which appear to be on borrowed time aswell since they've got no route and no use for them anywhere.As far as I know 5411 -5419 are going on the 49's as they are euro 5 and the route doesn't enter Newcastle. 5452 - 5469 are all for the 6 and 12. I could imagine the Versa's might stay until the next batch of electric buses are delivered.

I was on 2 ex Saltwell Parks yesterday, and the seats are worn to their last life they desperately need a re-trim, and USB's. If anyone has been on them recently they can agree with me, the state of them are attriocus, if they were at Riverside they would have been Replaced.
