They may have power sockets - I didn't have time to look around the coach.
They don't have 'Go North East Wi-Fi' (ie we don't manage/maintain it) - National Express may have something that they put on to compete with Megabus, but I'm not really sure.

National Express specify exactly what they want when it comes to new builds - even down to the camera recorders being used!
Means that it's a standardised build across all operators who operate National Express contracts. I guess it makes things a bit simpler across the board.
And it seemed there was one on-loan today anyway. South Gloucestershire Bus and Coach's BX65WCG was on the 530

Not all operators use the levante, parks of hamilton (& their plymouth company) and selwyns use the plaxton elite.
A Vyking is currently on loan to Stanley. I think it was 3967 but it obviously has something to do with the lolynes at Stanley dropping like flies.

Couldn't identity what the fitter was pouring into it unfortunately.

That was the one caught fire last Saturday ironically Lee Dan and Davie had photographed that bus earlier in the day while I was at the football match

That's why I commented. Withdrawn being a rather understated way of saying incinerated!

Yes, I was in Stanley, whilst Dan and Davie I believe were in Newcastle when the photos were taken. Mine is yet to feature online.
