(09 Dec 2021, 3:05 pm)54APhotography I've gone after a Citaro on the 50 before and the only one that got past Washington was 5486!
If it's any consolation, 5293 and 5295 were absent today
(08 Dec 2021, 5:57 pm)Michael First Solo is now in "Sunderland District Silver" - actually looks good.

Martijn also did a Tweet to say he was also at Saltmeadows, and in the background - it looks like 5292 is getting a repaint - https://twitter.com/MartijnGNE/status/14...22/photo/3

Is sad to see that Pride Citaro 5292 has lost its Pride Livery and is now a Cherry.
5291 is now in Sunderland District Cherry

The second Solo SR M925 663 'Silver' dedicated for the 6 day a week service 33 dropped onto the supported Sunderland circular service 135/136 today. Caught in a quiet spell of the junction of the A183 and A1231 on the 1125 135 service.

(02 Jan 2022, 8:00 pm)Dan The 33 interworks with the 135/136 on evenings, so the pair of Silver Solos should be on the 135/136 on Sundays too when the 33 doesn’t run.Always found this an interesting working, I assume it is supported on an evening. Noted the interworking on weekdays when the odd Purple was dropping on the 33.

(02 Jan 2022, 8:06 pm)Dan Indeed - secured by Nexus on Mon to Sat evenings and all day Sunday.Exactly why I find it interesting, a route that takes in slices of others, but as you remark, no comparable daytime service. very unusual.
Bizarre services really, and odd to still exist given that the Mon to Sat daytime services no longer exist.
Contracts up for renewal in May.

Followed 8830 the other day and it's rear promo caused no end of discussion.
Instigated by youngest constantopolous who was sitting alongside me in the front of the car, he picked apart the images used and highlighted the issues with currents/currants and berries.
If a child younger than 10 can see the difference, it makes me wonder why the designers couldn't.
Needless to say, he wasn't impressed and offered a range of alternative ideas and suggestions.
Couldn't be more prouder.

(02 Jan 2022, 9:44 pm)Dan Excellent news that a child younger than ten has noticed the rear advert and it’s caused a lot of discussion in your car!I assume you want those responsible at GNE Towers, to have created a positive impression with youngest constantopolous?
It’s achieving its purpose. I’m sure those responsible at GNE will be delighted to hear this news, and, like you, couldn’t be prouder.

Not one that provoked ridicule and laughter.
(cos it was the latter).

(02 Jan 2022, 9:49 pm)Dan Delightful that it brought some joy and happiness to eldest constantopolous’ day.Youngest. Not the eldest.
Let’s all have bacon sandwiches to celebrate.
I know a cracking butchers - it’s called Kyle’s - the new Sunderland District Boldon Bananas service goes there. Suppose there’s a Greengrocer nearby.
