(04 Mar 2017, 10:22 am)Michael Wonder if 604 will be replaced by 713 at Stanley then, so all there examples are in Venture?

It would make sense. Gives them an extra branded spare when the T1/T2 is not operating.

Hopefully the missing taglines (sorry!) on the Venture Solo SRs are replaced soon along with the route details on the Q3 and 58 Versas along with 5386. That being said, could the Citylink Versas be nearing a freshen up repaint to coincide with the 57 Citaros being repainted and refurbished.

Passed Saltmeadows 0815 this morning. Very cluttered. Don't they normally move/sell them on a lot quicker? Some, like the Nat Express coach seem to have been their ages. Also four of the Solo's from the West Country present. Any help with which ones would be helpful. only one I could see properly was WK59 CWW (Ex Plymouth 224) I believe. Further along the road was a Hexham based Scania approaching Saltmeadows.

I think the bus allocated to the Tesco Free Bus services will be 706 - the only example as yet unallocated, with 707/708 destined for Peterlee (presently being prepared for service at Deptford) and 709 having already entered service at Riverside on service 13. Didn't someone mention they saw one of these Solos heading up to Stanley recently?

There was one there one day, a strict warning to not use it, though. Was gone the next day.

You would think if it was for the Venture they would use a Solo SR especially as one has just been painted into corporate livery.

I don't have the 3 lines anymore.  I used to but then you did an update and they no longer appear. I tend to have to spot someone pasting links to access it. As you have done just then

Just remember to type northeastbuses.co.uk/news/ or bookmark it is my suggestion. I mean bugs are bugs, but the workaround seems simple enough
