Guilty as charged Your honour
Don't have cause to come across to SNE very often but every time I do a sortie back to M'bro I'm impressed by how well the Dart's cope on Service 1. This route must have some pretty demanding timings given the times I've seen the Dart's running in pairs or down on schedule. What could replace them ?

Yes, they took the E200s off (largely) as they couldn't cope.

Annoying even if you post a 'new reply' on a totally different subject it puts it in with your previous post!

Think he is referring to the 12S shuttle in shields due to the works between market and river drive. He isn't referring to services 12.

No they're not at the present time. But then deckers don't have to be until January 2017, by which time they'll likely have gone.

Hope so. They could do with some but they'd probably rather just increase the frequencies.

They won't be used on school services anyway as they've lost the McMillan contract. But the early E400s are getting on a bit now anyway.

Could send the early E400s could send them to Stockton they would do great work on 36 37 38 or 13s but can't see it happening anytime soon
