(26 May 2014, 8:22 am)Tom wrote 13 doesn't operate on Sundays, and it's stand alone during weekdays/Saturdays.

(26 May 2014, 8:24 am)Marcus wrote Oh, I thought they swapped over at Langley Park. At least they used to. I forgot about the Sunday service!

(26 May 2014, 1:23 pm)gtom wrote In relation to recent topic. 4908 is carrying fresh air on the X22 today

(26 May 2014, 4:48 pm)Michael wrote Not think its time for GNE to update the timetables on their site as:

5 - is now Northern
W5/W6 is now Northern
67/69 - is now Northern

Also updating the timetables to show what buses are used

Wear Tees XPRESS, Whey aye five-0 and the South Tyne

(27 May 2014, 12:50 pm)Michael wrote The post on the GNE site for extra buses has being updated to show which services will have extra buses, here is the link:

http://www.simplygo.com/news/buses-during-metro-strike-on-28-may-2014

Only services that have extra buses are;

Coaster 1 - operates between Wrekenton and Whitley Bay, calling at places such as Gateshead, Newcastle, Byker, Wallsend and North Shields.

The Crusader
Crusader 27 - operates between South Shields and Newcastle, calling at places such as Chichester, Jarrow, Hebburn, Heworth and Gateshead.

Fast Cats
Fast Cats X36 - operates between Sunderland and Newcastle, calling at places such as Southwick, Witherwack, Boldon, Heworth and Gateshead.

No timetables with extra buses added, so not sure if this just means that these will be double decker operated instead of single deckers!

(27 May 2014, 1:02 pm)Dan wrote Traveline is absolutely no use at all for this. Trains are still running every 12 minutes according to that. :s

(27 May 2014, 1:03 pm)Michael wrote They never will be, always behind!

be interesting see whats on the X36 due to interworking with the X35

(27 May 2014, 1:07 pm)Dan wrote The Metro strike in 2012 saw service X3 operated by deckers, but Deptford did have more back then.
I shall get myself out tomorrow to provide an update! I'll see if I can get a pic of one of the Metros not stopping at Stadium of Light too.

(27 May 2014, 1:13 pm)Michael wrote Wait for that, its just being posted:

Tomorrow's Metro strike has been called off

(27 May 2014, 1:42 pm)Dan wrote And the Stadium of Light stop will be operational too!

(27 May 2014, 4:06 pm)Racer_Experience wrote i thought Nexus had ran outta money last time i heard to be honest i cannot see them gain the quality contracts as they continue to waste money by upgrading stations and not giving people covers for there pass plus also it will cost a bomb repainting the vehicles which by the end of it will bankrupt nexus
