(26 Mar 2017, 11:07 pm)Acky81 Anyone know what's going on with the 39 lately? Deckers galore 3979 3980 3981 on the route nearly every day. Could the scanias finally be getting branded
Maybe there was just some left over paint from the red arrows rebranding

Nah, these red Solo's and Solar's are going to be the new 'purple Versa's' 'silver Citaro's' where they run around Sunderland for about a year or so without branding before they eventually either chuck some branding on or paint them a different colour

I can see them doing that, it is taking the water now but its obvious that the Citaro's have took the front line for branding, might be a while before the 33/39/238 get branded, if all of the Citaro's are getting a refurb. (not the ones on the 4(

Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

Just love a noisy decker on the 2, 2a or the 39 when I need to sleep for work. Noise pollution - surely something needs to be done about them!

Toon Link would value the Citaros more, as in the route is more adequate for the Mercs, Fast sections, hills etc.

If I use my logic here if 5275-5279 go on the 12 that leaves 5280/81/82/83 to go on something or transfer them to deptford for 61 and put 5284 aswell on , 5234 to 5238 to Stanley for X70/X71/X72 which would leave one omnicity spare and it could be spares for X30/31/2 and X70/71/72

Who says the X30/X31/X70/X71/6 isn't going to have a restructure?
We still have a lot of V reg buses which could do with replacing!
