(02 Sep 2016, 5:13 pm)Adrian It's refreshing to see an open and honest letter. Most companies would not respond to, what has at times, been very unfair criticism.
GNE and the two schools have come up with something bespoke, in place of providing something that the LEA (Durham County Council) should be providing. I knew they would not be getting much from the school for it, but I didn't for one minute think that it'd be as little as £6,000.
Parents need to see the service for what it is, and look at what the alternative is across the service network. More walking, longer days, and perhaps an increased cost in some cases.

Is there a particular reason why the 3 new Solo's don't have fleet numbers in numerical order? Is 681 destined for somewhere different to 689/690?

(02 Sep 2016, 7:55 pm)Adrian I understand it's just the order they've been painted in, rather than it having been done for a reason.

NK62CLZ has lost it's powersteering, as such it has been left conked out just outside of low fell towards newcastle.
Probably related to the above, Three Hybrids not in service Northbound through Low Fell, one randomly entered service at the Alestaster and the others powered through (about 20.45)
