(01 Jun 2016, 10:25 pm)KBusLoverMum Clearly they've not stuck around. I don't think I've ever seen a picture of one before.

I like (good) Omnicities for the quirky ride experience but, capacity issues aside, I can't imagine them having been any sort of fun on a ploddy route like the Angel, apart from on the A167 between CLS and Pity Me.

Capacity was an issue with Omincities, they didn't last long at all. A huge mistake that GNE made there.

There's lots of pics around of the Electrics from the Quaylink, I enjoyed the ride but couldn't cope with Grey St or Dean St. They've all been scrapped now

Wistfully stuck in the 90s

5318 in Prudhoe Front Street when GNE had Citaro's on the TENS, shows streetview hasn't been updated for a while there

(01 Jun 2016, 10:39 pm)BusLoverMum Interesting one a few years back, there, too. Not entirely sure what it is

Have cycled through what I think it could be and come up with nowt. Of course, any attempt to find a fleet list from the time unearths inaccurate hack jobs like this one http://uktransport.wikia.com/wiki/Arriva_North_East

It looks like on of the RxxxCOO darts which were passed around pretty much every NE depot around 2008-2011. They look like a styling mid stage between the step entrence Dash Dart and and SPD. Link:

That'll be it. Googling darts, not precisely knowing the various types is a remarkably fruitless task.

They are now airport buses in Illinois after extensive modification Sleepy
