'My wife wants to sell my collection of 23 buses' - BBC News

Worth 200K!

City Transport have advertised an event they are doing on Monday evening, ahead of their takeover of the Sunderland Connect contract.

I know that GNE use openstreetmap for the routes for the bus trackers. 
Any idea how this works?
I would like to make several custom route maps?

Didn't see this posted but here they are: https://www.arrivabus.co.uk/latest-news/...ear-31-aug

Not sure I agree with the messy changes with the 43/44/45 to force a school bus in with now random gaps in service mind.

Volvo EvoRa 4502 has been showing as VOR since 2nd August on Bus Times. Anyone know why?

Hi everyone,I have just joined your site.i am after any info or photographs about the northern general transport Depot on sherburn terrace in Consett. I spent a few years working at the British steel works in the early sixties and can remember passing it. I don't do Facebook or Twitter so that narrows my options many thanks

Have to get to Newcastle from Boldon tomorrow - car isn't an option due to parking charges. I can't cycle it either which would be the easiest option.

How reliable is the X34? Don't fancy risking the metro!

Dates announced for strike

As part of the Railway 200 Events earlier this week (08/07/2025) LNER unveiled 91105 (91150) in a Centenary Livery to celebrate 50 Years of the National Railway Museum in York.

I popped down in the afternoon when it quietened down after the public unveiling on the morning for some photos, if you haven't seen 91105(91150) here are some photos I took on the following link - https://www.flickr.com/photos/adammalark...0327407166

91105(91150) was on display at NRM until 10/07/2025 where it will be return to Neville Hill Depot (Leeds) for Maintenance prior to returning to Passenger Service on the East Coast Mainline.
