Finally tried the X24, enjoyed it.

Certainly preferable comfort wise over the Metro (or the Nothern pacers) and light years ahead of the X36. The seats really are comfortable.

If you can get the emergency exit, the legroom is superb! Those seats also have car style aircon vents which were very welcome as it was so bloody warm

I found the interior a little too dark with those heavily tinted windows and The Omnicitiy felt a little sluggish at times, particularly on hill climbs.

Journey time and the central location of both stops was a plus. There were 15 of us from Newcastle and 6 from Sunderland (tho this return was the 4.07 so expected it t be quiet)

Yes 22509 has entered service today, it's allocated onto the 32/32A for today. 22508 is the next nearest one ready for service, and is under preparation.

A rather surprising piece of news I've just seen on a Facebook group is that Walkergate depot have Wright StreetDeck demonstrator SL15ZGP which will be allocated to service 38 from later in the week, believe it's to see the difference in fuel consumption between the StreetDeck's and the Enviro400 MMC's.

An MMC will be allocated onto the 38 for direct comparison while it's here, which should be a fortnight. Service 38 drivers have been receiving familiarisation on the MMCs the past week.

It's just parked up at the bus stop at top of Hylton Retail park (coming from the Queen Alex bridge)
