Yes, this is a demonstration vehicle (previously used with Stagecoach as fleet number 80025 on Megabus work). To my knowledge, it will only be used for engineering staff to compare to the current Scania coaches in the fleet, similar to the Euro 6 Mercedes Citaro K last year at Riverside.

Yes, all coaching staff are employed through Go North East. Only time when this is not the case is when TUPE applies (ie if Go North East acquires another operator's work) - an example of this would be the Yourbus services taken over not so long ago.
