Not sure what it's doing at Chester-le-Street then. Unless I missed a post about it's transfer/loan.
I don't think its transferred out of Riverside.... Dan or Citaro should be able confirm that.

Yes, that's right. Service X25 is allocated two Dennis Tridents and three Scania L94s.

Riverside's Scania L94 4932 and 4933 were allocated to the "Highwayman" services 97/98 today, 4944 and 4966 were allocated to service 94 and 4964 was allocated to service 27.
Chester-le-Street's Scania L94s 4926/27/31 were allocated to service X25 today, 4928/29 were allocated to service 50 today, and 4934 was allocated to services 13/14 today.

People can ask questions again, you know. You're not innocent of it.
well I got the coast and country 78 11:37 from park lane to chester, and I was waiting for Arriva X12 from chester to Newcastle at 12:39, at 12:35 4934 red X25 pulled into the stand lady driver, supervisor told the driver that you getting a changeover and 4932 came from chester depot and pulled round to the back of 4934, depot driver took 4934 back towards the depot, the lady driver started to pull away from the stand when the supervisor shouted to the driver that the destination is blank, but by this time the x12 came down and tried to get onto the stand, and when I was at Eldon square looking around, 4932 was in the stand showing a piece of paper at the central top of the window screen showing the number 28. don't know if it can be back traced if theres any chester drivers on here, it was definite both buses were in the 493* series, im positive it was 4932 and 4934 unless my head got battered with the next stop announcements on the 78

I think this may be the case. If Dan can confirm it's spent the day on the 97/98, it's not been at Chester-le-Street.

4932 was on the 97 departing Newcastle at 12:03, arriving Metrocentre at 12:52pm.
4934 has been on the 28 today too, by the looks of it. Unsure how this relates to an X25 but hey ho.

Numbers currently not used (Doesn't include letter variations):
3,6,7,12,16,22-26,30,48,51,52,55,62,63,65,66,70-73,75-77,79,81,83,87,89,100 but i doubt well see three number services on all of them - maybe the 131/706/707.
All those could be used for new numbers....
Big'un just looked at that list then, rather pedantically, suggested to me that you forgot 42

You should never forget '42', it is, after all, the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything!
Someone on Facebook noted that the 31/2 says Blackhall Mill which they never served.

On the side of the bus? If so, the 11 serves there...
Found the issue - VOSA cancellation. Valid point i suppose.

A few years ago I think the odd peak time 31 or 32 ventured up to Blackhall Mill.
Looks like it wasn't a lie!
