(06 Oct 2015, 8:40 am)Charles41 I visited the garage of PCL Travel yesterday afternoon. Their current fleet is shown below:
BAZ7053 Volvo B10M-60 Van Hool C53F 1990 Priory Coach & Bus Limited, North Shields 103 2015 Formerly G853RNC
RIL5885 Mercedes Benz 709D Advanced Vehicle Builders B25F 1994 Grahams Motor Services Limited, West Auckland M12 2015 Formerly M679RAJ
PN06FJC Mercedes Benz 616CDI Mellor B15L 2006 Grahams Motor Services Limited, West Auckland 2015
They also currently have Mercedes Benz 0814D MX54KKY on loan from Luxury Coach Travel Limited (Waltons). Their staff informed me that the Bellingham to Kielder service is no longer running due to low passenger numbers.
I also visited Snaiths who still have a small yard on the opposite side of Tyne to PCL at Lemington. There were 3 vehicles present, the yard is clearly visible from the private lane that runs past it’s boundary. I tried looking for Maynard’s new yard at Newburn but could not locate this despite walking the entire length of the industrial estate.
Please could PCL’s fleetlist be updated.

Doesn't really comply with DDA / PSVAR regulations with that destination set-up, but hey ho!
Fleet list updated: http://northeastbuses.co.uk/fleet/operat...perator=90
(19 Jan 2016, 11:27 am)Scott It will comply when an actual blind is fitted.

Heading to Hexham tomorrow and I need a photo of PCL Travel's Dart. Which service from Hexham do we think the Dart is more likely to be found on tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday) the 613 to Whittonstall Village or the 885 to Byrness. Judging by the times they don't interwork.
EDIT: doesn't matter anymore, I got my photo.
What's usually allocated to service 808 on weekends
