RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015 - L469 YVK - 11 Sep 2015 What will happen to Stu Elmores announcements (and Kelly Hynch on the 309 around the Cobalt) on all of the following affected routes now him and Kelly are leaving Metro Radio bearing in mind that Gary and Lisa's Real / Heart Radio announcement's haven't yet been changed on Connections 4, Citylink and Red Arrows: - Coast and Country - Fab 56 (Will Sun FM now do these?) - Cobalt Clipper And anymore that come to mind?

It doesn't matter who does the announcements. As long as they are easy to understand for the sake of the passengers. It will cost too much to redo all announcements just because the people have left the radio station.

Sarcastic comment of the day! RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015 - Drifter60 - 12 Sep 2015 (11 Sep 2015, 9:05 pm)S813 FVK wrote Nothing?

It will cost too much to redo all announcements just because the people have left the radio station. It's intresting though in terms of Gary and Lisa's announcements, not only do they both not work for the station, but the station has since rebranded. Real is now just a rock brand in the North West. I wonder how Global feel about the fact a now defunct brand been used on bus services still (the screens show the logo of the station, I presume this part of the deal between GNE and said stations). Similarly Bauer, may not be keen on the idea that a former employer is been associated with the brand still when it's possinle he may join a rival station for instance. There also the issue of Metro's recent rebrand, with the services still using the old logo on NSA screens. RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015 - R852 PRG - 12 Sep 2015 Black OmniCity 5253 is operating the 09:30 X31 out of Newcastle, to Lanchester; for those who would like a photograph.

How has that happended? Just to point out this is the discussion thread not the rare and odd workings one RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015 - R852 PRG - 12 Sep 2015 (12 Sep 2015, 8:36 am)NK53 TKT wrote How has that happended? My mistake, it was actually the 09:15 and running quite late. It's freshly repainted, so I figured by putting it in the Latest thread it would get more attention than in the rare and odd workings thread. Either way it's not rare; its part of the allocation.

As Marcus said in his post above this one, 5253 is not rare or odd on the X30/X31. The allocation should be made up of 3 Omnicities and 7 Omnidekkas to form the combined PVR of 10 (5 vehicles for X30/X31 and the other five for X70/X71). RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015 - S813 FVK - 12 Sep 2015 It'd be interesting to see if 5250/4/73 also go black. If not, then i can, like others, see no other possibility other than the toon link.
