(06 Mar 2017, 8:42 am)Dan I think some heating modifications may be prioritised on the OmniDekkas - similar to what is being done on all Scania L94s in the fleet at the moment, with the bulk of the work being undertaken at Chester-le-Street Depot.A welcomed modification. Most of them can't decide whether they want to be hot or cold and frequently change between the two.

Passed Saltmeadows and 5289 has received Wear Xpress branding.
Was also surprised to see 5274 there as well.

I also hope 638's tagline pleases everyone, it is the same as 633:

(08 Mar 2017, 8:56 am)Pulsar Go North East Trialed a B8RLE back in 2015, fleet number 9108.

Doubt they will trial one again and they will probably just continue to buy streetlites.

(08 Mar 2017, 10:14 am)Venturego As the B8RLE is a Volvo product (with Wright bodywork) and not a mainline or part of the Wrightbus range, maybe it does not fit with the new relationship GNE have with Wright bus
Wonder why GNE haven't trialed the Volvo 7900 Hybrid:
Interesting video in link (Lothian / Volvo partnership) :

Seems to be a good all rounder for city, rural and long distance performance, economy and endurance.

(08 Mar 2017, 7:56 pm)2bagstew I was at meeting today with a high level member of Go North East and he was praising X5/6/7 services, when i see the X6 and X7 they are nearly always carrying fresh air, he has also stated that there where no plans to alter the East Durham Network.
I think personally it was a mistake too have cancelled the Peterlee - Middlesbrough section.. Go North East say it was talking trade from there flagship service X9.
