(02 Oct 2015, 4:06 pm)buss14 a man who worked at ashington depot said ashington are due to receive 7440 7439 7438 7437 7436 from belmont and 7470 7481 7479 7468 7472 will go in other direction. i understand the theory of it because if you think about it, belmont have the alx400's and we get the lowlanders until the ex london buses arrive from refurb then the lowlands go for scrap and belmont still have full use of the alx400's

(02 Oct 2015, 4:00 pm)NK53 TKT What is allocated?
An MPD?

Yes. 

Should be a non-WiFi MPD, as the WiFi ones get used on the 35 or the 57.

I think someones been having you on.

We have four vehicles coming up from Enfield, for the MAX X20. The employee says there are five Y-reg Lowlanders coming across, only four will be withdrawn once these arrive. 

What I think will happen is...:
Four B7TLs arrive at Ashington, displacing four DAF DB250s to Durham
Two B7TLs arrive at Blyth, displacing two Gemini 2DLs to Durham
Above vehicles arrive at Durham, withdrawing the five Lowlanders.

If your travelling during the week follow any of the suggestions that I've gave you, if your travelling on Saturdays or Sundays use the WW1 from stand E in Ashington bus station, leaves 00/30 past and 15/45 from Woodhorn.

All the same in my opinion. Its only a ten minute journey. 1792/1800/1 are for use on 57 and 35 only, as they have WiFi provision.
