(01 Jul 2014, 1:03 pm)Dan 22078 has now transferred to Newcastle. Currently on Market Street out of service.
Rather unfortunately, this means that Sunderland will perhaps retain non-DDA ALX300s after all.

(01 Jul 2014, 1:31 pm)AIG20 Service 12 is only a Monday - Saturday daytime service, which means that the non DDA vehicles will only be in service during the day, not on evenings and Sundays.

(01 Jul 2014, 5:23 pm)AIG20 I'm just surfing through Flickr and "Durham Bus Man" has photographed 28035 and 28036 in service, alongside many other buses.
(02 Jul 2014, 7:29 pm)AIG20 There must be a very confused driver operating on the "E" services this evening; as I seen an E1 head down Lizard Lane (towards the Marsden Inn), around the roundabout and back up Lizard Lane again - in the direction of Sunderland, even though the destination read "E1 South Shields" and that this service does not serve Lizard Lane.
This is a common error that a bus driver has made, because three times in the past few months I have seen an E1 (heading to Sunderland) head up Lizard Lane, around the turning circle and back town Lizard Lane towards the Marsden Inn to continue the correct route down the bank and along the Coast Road.

(02 Jul 2014, 7:43 pm)AIG20 Interestingly, Stockton MAN ALX300s 22668 (V668 DDC) and 22669 (V669 DDC) have apparently transferred to Lincoln, including Sunderland's 22491 (T491 BNL). However, 22494 (T494 BNL) remains in reserve at Sunderland.

(03 Jul 2014, 11:44 am)AIG20 The "E" services are suffering delays of up to 15 minutes due to the traffic congestion in Sunderland as well as the Gas Mains Replacement roadwork's in Whitburn. This is causing some workings being cancelled - as mentioned on the SNE twitter page.
