(04 Jan 2016, 4:40 pm)brianr They don't come much rarer than that.

Blyth haven't got much to operate the minibus services with. There's 3 minibuses out of use - 1758 and 1799 have transferred to Yorkshire Tiger and one is VOR.

Or...it may be something to do with the peak passenger loadings on the 2.

They shouldn't be minibus services anyway, a Gemini is a bit extreme like Wink

One of the Quorum Commanders has been on there the past three days, far more suitable.

There's always the clause that you can use a non DDA bus for 20 days a year of course, but I'm guessing that it shouldn't be out and indeed I messaged some people as soon as I spotted it this morning.

Didn't make much difference as 4511 was on 81s Tuesday. And 4507 came out after being on the pits but don't know if went on service. Wasn't through M'bro.

1512 is on the 5/5a today so there must be another Streetlite missing as well.

Be lovely to see you in charge of bus companies.

It would have made Ashington short of minibuses if we followed your plan....

Ashington already have given Blyth 1790 on loan...
