That'll be 561. Bizarre that it's gone back to Deptford when branded for the AD122...
Any pics of 561?

Stop swearing to Michael!

We all know Michael isn't a lover of the Volvo B7TLs (Vykings in particular rather than Presidents), and to say that they are "quick"... Well... That's just disgraceful! Wink 
There's a red arrows B9 at the foot of Newgate Street with a NIS blind. I assume it's broken down, as there's no one in sight.
With Arriva splitting some of their longer routes, do you think GNE will split the TTX at Peterlee at somepoint? I know that they probably could however, unlike the X12 / X14 / X15 / X18 / X93 where windey and twisty roads oblidge full attention at all times, the A19 is a different environment. Would certainly allow a lot of flexibility as far as Riverside is concerned though.

Here's hoping the bus you see in Newcastle is a Hybrid which has been updated...

Rush job alert, but here you go.

Cheers!

The 'flick' on the 1 sticks out a bit, but the number on the display stands out really well. The number seemingly looks so much bigger now, even though there's not that much difference in size.

Aye, it certainly stands out a lot more in the dark!

Look fantastic, certainly stand out at night. Will have to get a few photos for myself on Saturday, and hopefully quite a few over the course of Easter. You and citaro5284 have done a great job on them! Smile

And great photo too, aureolin!

Mind, I'm not letting him take the credit when it's getting positive comments..! Yours truly who has gone through destination after destination - there's about 12 different versions of the 21!

He's too busy managing the less creative things...

Knars the score.......
Seen a pic of 5234 in black anyone know why

Getting cascaded down to different route(s) because the Red Kites are getting streetlites..

Posts about 5234 are further back....haven't got a confirmed route(s) yet though....
Got a little bit board this evening, so I thought id be a bit creative and create a revised Loop Livery on a Scania Omnicity as that is where I think 5234 to 5242 will end up once the Streetlites enter service on the 45/46.

Good work, Adam  Big Grin

There's only so much paint to go around! Wink

I'm sure it will follow in the footsteps of the other Volvo B7/Geminis eventually - but when that is is another matter.
WiFi on 6056 seems to be having some issues. The SSID keeps disappearing. Same crack on both phones.
