Poll! You need a poll!

We'll be there, if my printer deigns to print off the tickets. It pretended to, yesterday, but when I went upstairs to check, they weren't there.

Big'un and little'un have hid them from you, or could it be hubby as he does not want a go at driving a bus?

I've got tickets for the Open Day event, but my kids don't fancy it.... well they are teenagers! Is this just a kids day or would I as an adult be OK still to go and have a wonder round?  Still hoping my wife might come along with me also.

Are there any other people out there just going along as adults without kids?

It will be interesting I think without kids. You will see the engineering and Service Delivery functions, and see how we regulate services, so its not just for kids and of course you may be able to have a go driving a bus.

Yeah I think it will be very interesting. Gonna try an make it. Good on GNE for organising it, is it the first depot open day by a big company in the NE recently? I know Stagecoach do them in Cumbria but not heard of them doing any here.

Stagecoach did something similar at Stockton a year or two ago. They also launched their gas buses for Sunderland by hosting a sort of open day.

Both one-offs as opposed to what is hopefully going to be an annual event, though.

Stagecoach did two in 2014 - Sunderland for the Gas Bus launch and Stockton for the 40th Anniversary of Cleveland Transit's formation.

Most of GNE's depots aren't really fit for this purpose, as they're so old.

Riverside was built with open days in mind, so facilities and procedures were put in place to accommodate public events, alongside the day-to-day running of what is ultimately an operational bus depot.
