A few days ago a GNE bus pulled up at Wheatley hill outside a newsagent and driver went inside and somebody asked the driver why the bus was outside and the driver said that he was route learning the 22 due to the upcoming strike, I wouldn’t of thought gne would step in.

(13 Dec 2018, 2:50 pm)Dan I don't think this will happen - how could Go North East operate (and presumably take fares on) a service which they have not registered with the traffic commissioner?
Duplicating existing services which compete, and/or upgrading capacity on some routes, maybe.

(13 Dec 2018, 6:28 am)RobinHood Historically different companies with different T&C.
Northumbria drivers don't have paid meal breaks, so their basic hourly rate is higher too.
Durham County still have a significant number of drivers who do get paid meal breaks, although since around 2016 new drivers to that part of the company don't get them.
(13 Dec 2018, 2:54 pm)cbma06 I wasn’t there, I was told by someone else, otherwise I would of asked a few questions, I thought it was a it weird as well , I know in the past that services can be registered after the commencing date under certain circumstances. Just have to wait and see if the strike goes ahead, just I thought I might put it here just I case anybody else has heard anything.
