(28 Jun 2015, 6:58 pm)Dan You'll find out the answer to this one next month!  Wink

The things you mentioned are just the kind of thing you'd get on a bog-standard set-up. It'd be nice to see something a bit more interesting introduced by ANE and GNE..!

Don't know about GNE (if they already do it), but I'd like to see Arriva introduce local backgrounds to the NSA displays.

Update from Darlington, 4644 is currently under repair after an accident in the yard. Ironically it hit 1302, which hasn't moved in weeks. 7536 is off the road, also following a prang, and FINALLY, 1461 has arrived! [Image: 1063bda81c4fa2395493a11a3a63ad93.jpg]

(28 Jun 2015, 4:59 pm)Dan Wonder if this is why the vehicles allocated to "Sapphire" service 22 (Sunderland - Durham) have not yet been programmed - despite entering service a month or two ago?

Mind, adding a bog standard "Sapphire" screen opposed to having Hanover's generic screen with their logo on isn't too difficult...

From a post on Facebook, it would appear that the announcements are now finally working on at least one Streetlite

yep, some or all the service 22 streetlites have the next stop announcements, I found out that this morning at peterlee bus station, I was 3 stands away from the streetlite and I can hear it loudly, the spare unbranded streetlite was on service 24 yesterday and the next stop announcements were on, I was boarding service X21 this morning and their was an Arriva fella at peterlee bus station with a clip board jotting down how many passengers were getting off service 21 and how many left on bus and how many boarded the X21 to Sunderland and vice versa, the arriva fella was only interested in jotting down only the loads on 21/X21 and nothing else while he was waiting for another hour he went into the transit white van or sunbathing out in the sun. the spare sapphire pulsar was on service 24 today and from the gleaming of the sun on the side of the bus and you could make out the old service 7 route along the side.

When the 20 gets extended to Alnwick, I wonder if the service will be allocated the B7TLs from London?

And also, what will the 33 interwork with when the 57A will no longer serve Morpeth?

I believe the X20 has been marked to go MAX - but what with is the million dollar question what with routes left right and centre requiring deckers.

As for the 33, given the plan to merge the Kirkhall part of the 2 into the short X14 with one an hour terminating in Morpeth rather than running to Newcastle, I wouldn't be too surprised if the 33 still works in with that.
