(02 Jun 2016, 9:04 am)EL1TE 8333 broken down at Fewster Square...  4901 came to the rescue...

EDIT: It didn't breakdown. I think it had an LED problem, but I am not exactly sure. Just saw it back on the Q1 Smile

(01 Jun 2016, 10:16 pm)Dan Yes, it's a demonstrator.

Plenty of vehicles being withdrawn from the fleet at the moment that can help steady the ship at Washington: 4924 and 5170 being prime examples of this!

Ah right, thanks for clarifying.

8264 seems to be at Chester-le-Street, was sighted going up the A693 with a Chester-le-Street driver at the wheel.

BX16 CXL is another new arrival for National Express work, currently being prepared by a fitter in the depot.

9101 is awful, caught it on the 86, my plan was to loop round via Barmston Court but I couldn't so I got it to the Sainsbury's car park and for two minutes it was awful.

Onboard 6097 with no NSAs

Wonder if that is where the merger of routes will be?
Another cross city route, that can bump up revenue on the 96 perhaps?
Just like the 58.
