(06 May 2017, 6:25 am)Dan No longer planned to go for refurbishment due to the impending return of 5292, 5332 was stripped of its Cinderella Bus promotional livery yesterday afternoon.

Is it going straight for repaint?

Which depot will 5292 be allocated?

Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

If it is going for refurbishment instead of 5332, would it not be best to allocate it to Riverside to keep the planned number of refurbished spares at Riverside the same?

Waggonway Solar 4958 has gained a replacement ZF 5HP-502 Gearbox out of a cannibalised B10 Renown, And now goes like stink due to the different setup to the Solar and Air Throttle of the Scania, Making it a rather unique Solar in the fleet.

Regardless of that, Anyone wanting a good run on a Solar, This is the one to get.

You can, as long as it is fitted with a tachograph.

You may be able to make out the digital tachograph from the photo I uploaded to Flickr of the dash on 9097.

It's going to be allocated to Hexham, so should be making its way there after use today. Likely to be parked up for driver familiarisation tomorrow, and allocated to services X81/185/681 from Wednesday all being well.

(07 May 2017, 11:02 pm)dannygee Do GNE do a lot of private hire work?

A growing amount, these days. Go North East are now getting involved in Rail Replacement work for Virgin Trains East Coast and Northern, too.
