(04 Jun 2016, 8:14 am)mb134 Not a massive amount, I'm just over 6ft and my knee is firmly in the back of the seat in front

(04 Jun 2016, 8:26 am)Jimmi Thought that would be the case, I am something under 6ft and my knees were pretty much jammed against the seats on 7423 the other day. Other downside to those Urban90's on 7416, no USB ports in the backs of the seats.

(04 Jun 2016, 8:45 am)mb134 Didn't realise that the proper MAX ones had USB ports.I wasn't impressed with 7423 on the X12 on Thursday, on the journey I had it was pretty slow on the A167 between Chester-le-Street and Pity Me. Wonder how they will fare on the 46/48.
7416, mechanically, seems shot. An alarm went off just after I got on at Morpeth, while the bus was still stationary, after which I overhead that the driver had problems with starting it at Newcastle.
When stationary, it starts shaking like mad every couple of seconds. It also took forever to get up to any sort of speed on the A1 after Felton. Not great impressions.

7426 seen returning to Redcar on Saturday night after completing X93 duties.
Just finished at wheatley Hill just after 2pm, and driving back I was behind solo 2819 on service 22 to Sunderland, followed the solo to shotton but the arriva driver indicated right to go into shotton but cancelled his indicator and carried on up the road where the 24 comes down to go into shotton, which in turn has left passengers at the bus stops. hopefully the driver realises his mistake, but 2819 sounds like it needs some work doing to it.
