(22 Sep 2021, 10:34 am)Thomas12 I noticed he was also complaining about A-Line as one of their Versas had seatbelts. I'm assuming he didn't know at the time they were covering for/helping out Go North East.

Looking at the 'Best Impressions' twitter feed, it certainly doesn't give the best impression - and they aren't a company I'd want to associate with based on their Twitter.

Yup, if a design agency can’t even get their own company logo into their profile picture then it doesn’t exactly give you the …best impression.

I saw 3 on it the other day.

at this time today.

There were more omnidekka's on X21 (5), than allocated buses (4). There are 7 branded & Extra High Spec Spares.

Oh I've met Graham a few times at marketing events and is a sound guy. He has a valid point. Mind not that I ever rely on the app to say how busy it is. Even after you've guven feedback it doesn't change how busy it is.

Seems to be a regular working, operated by Chester Le Street. A little strange one might say - the AM X62 is a solo that runs on to the 206s but then the evening journey uses a double decker, bit of a capacity difference!

It does, 28S - S2 (several)- 28S then X62, it used to do a 265 for the Durham Sixth Form. However they just throw the EDE (East Durham Explorer) Streetlites on to it creating massive capacity over flows.

Isn't it basically standard practice to arrest the driver for dangerous driving after such an incident while they establish all of the facts?

No, they wouldn’t do that unless they had strong evidence. I have a personal connection through a friend to the victim and this is life changing although it looks positive in a sense,
