I assume its related to delays caused by the roadwork's which are effecting the majority of the routes in Newcastle. Sean Blair states that a "third" vehicle will be joining 16833 and 16839 in the coming days, and they are being used to cover late running buses on the 22/X63/62/63.

Due to low availability of the Enviro 400s these two have been brought in to help make run out on a morning. Get taken off as soon as spares become available from engineering. Seems they were being used to cover mileage today on various services!

Signage has been changed at the Shields Depot. I wonder if the out of date phone numbers have been changed to on the lost property signs?!

They cut the 36/37/38 at Middlesbrough bus station supposedly to improve reliability but then go and link the Park End to M'bro section with the 12, but without through fares etc. Totally cocked up the services. The people have lost their through buses to Stockton and reliability hasn't improved in the slightest, quite the opposite in fact.

33101 R101 KRG DENNIS DART SLF HA (obviously has not been sold yet)

Probably, still waiting for the Alpha Recovery Scrap Wagon to collect it, which I believe is where the rest ended up.

The difference with this one is that it was rumoured to be a candidate for preservation.
