Could do with it, last time I rode it the headrests' looked battered to hell and a fresh up is long overdue.

Hopefully it may get WiFi.

I just wish that they would put a flashier livery on it as well.

If you take the 0 away from 10, you get 1, not 2?

Or am I falling behind in maths...

I'm in top set so I'm pretty sure if you take out the 0 you get 1.

You took it off topic in the first place rabbiting on about free food.

Annoyingly the thing we're still not getting out of this rabbiting on is where the free food is!

GNE ARE VERY PLAIN AND DULL NOW THATS MY OPOPION

Not sure that contributes to the ongoing discussion, but okay, everyone is entitled to their opinion...

Do you have any reasoning? I recall you didn't like the 36 because you didn't think anyone would travel from Chester-le-Street to Town End Farm; but didn't have anything to say for it?

What exactly makes them dull? The majority of their services are branded, with some very recognisable features that make the company stand out - look at Stagecoach or Arriva, they have very few brands in comparison to Go North East. Surely that makes them a bit more 'plain' than Go North East?

When did 7090 get repainted into driver training colours (albeit without vinyls)?
