Newcastle City Council are using a Vaccination bus, R982 XVM, an Alexander PS bodied Volvo B10M which is/was Stagecoach Manchester 20982. It still carried legal lettering for Stagecoach Manchester when I saw it this evening on Welbeck Road. I'm guessing that it is being operated by Stagecoach North East while it is here.
It carries plain white livery with NHS logos and lettering. Looks like it is due to appear at Old Eldon Square this coming Friday and Saturday.
Yes saw this on chillingham road last week. Havent seen it parked up at walkergate when going past, so not sure where it's based

If the driver had gone a couple hundred metres further he could have used the old railway bridge to remove the idiot. Same person also climbed on top of a number 7 in Lemington about a hour beforehand. Maybe he felt that climbing on a Single Decker wasn't enough of a challenge and doubled down to climb the decker.
Minor bus crash at Middlesbrough bus station yesterday afternoon:
megabus 54216 pulling round corner towards Broadcasting House bus stop to load passengers clipped stationary 27162 on route 39 waiting for a green light with a loud crunch.
Both vehicles swapped paint and suffered minor panel damage (offside rear corner on 54216, nearside rear corner on 27162) :the coach continued on it's way south, while 27162 went out of service)

It's been Vor since 24th July. In the past it was common to send vehicles to Stockton depot for repairs as their budget is always low compared to Wheatsheaf, Slatyford and Walkergate.
