Need any help with this

My mate has spotted on his way to work a 65 plate plain red Citaro O295 passing Cobalt heading towards Shiremoor. The dest just said "123 Hanover"

He passed it so couldn't see the legals and it wasn't in service. Any idea or update or if anyone knows who's it is

I had an appointment at South Tyneside Hospital this morning and noticed a bus stop (complete with Nexus flag) near the main entrance coming from Harton Lane inside the hospital grounds.

Anyone with knowledge of the South Tyneside network know what service(s) used this stop and when did they cease? I've never noticed the stop before and it seems in pretty good condition (paint wise etc). No timetable boards were evident and I forgot to note the stop number.

Probably deserves it's own thread. Not much to say yet as it's just rumours atm.

Can't imagine ex Loftus / Redcar drivers being very happy about that commute though, if true. It's as bad as Jesmond to Blyth / Ashington and Chester Le Street to Washington / Riverside and both those went down very badly.

Anyone know anything about this company?

I thought i'd make a thread like this to discuss service changes rather than clog up the service changes threads like May 2026, July 2026 etc, regardless if it was recent or even if it was years ago, where do you think GNE got it right, and where do you think they got it wrong, im quite interested in hearing your thoughts, so i'll kick it off
Yesterday (22nd May) i was waiting in Burradon for the bus (the 342) and while i was waiting i couldn't help to notice that the 37, X7 and X8 all seemed to be struggling, now of course it could of just been a rare 1 off thing where bizarrely the 352 would of been useful, i don't know what was causing the issues, even my 342 was about 5/6 minutes late (not complaining, its nothing in the grand scheme of things) but did get me thinking, it also made me realise, that area can get to a few places, except the Coast, which on a day like yesterday i imagine would of been popular, but the overall big miss from that area still has to be the 319 Cramlington-Sunderland

Eldon Square Bus Station will be closed while Newcastle City Council carry out essential resurfacing work, from 10 until 28 June.

During this period, most Go North East services that usually serve Eldon Square will arrive and depart from Newgate Street instead. This is with the exception of service 74, which will temporarily use Stand Y at Haymarket Bus Station, and services 684 and X85, which will run from a temporary stop located near the Eldon Square Bus Station entrance.

Stops on Newgate Street will be renumbered NG1-NG5 to help you easily locate the correct boarding point. The table and map below provide a full list of stopping locations for effected services.

If you usually board your bus on Newgate Street, your bus stop there may have changed so please use the table below to find out where your bus will stop while Eldon Square is closed.

All other city centre stops will still be served as planned.
