Think they might keep the Citaro's will next year at least, of course plans can change.

Has the last 2 branded B9's entered service yet along with the 2 spare?

(13 Feb 2014, 2:29 pm)Michael wrote Any idea why?

I was on the 10:14 (approx) 14 from Durham to Arnison Centre and by 12 the same bus and driver was is Chester on the X22.

Thanks =]

(13 Feb 2014, 3:40 pm)CatsFast101 wrote 14's interwork with X22, as a round trip on the 14 takes a little longer than a round trip on the 13's. 13's run separately.

(13 Feb 2014, 8:14 pm)aureolin wrote Love that image, but there's a lot of detail which would make it really expensive to print. The old Crusader logo like that is also a lot better than the present. May confuse folk having to board on the far side of the bus mind. :p

I was on the opposite Ten (Corbridge noon to Prudhoe to Corbridge 1pm) so couldn't see the registration.

(14 Feb 2014, 5:09 pm)Dan wrote 3963 was on there yesterday and was reported to be on a board which finished in Hexham last night. Perhaps the same vehicle.

(14 Feb 2014, 6:27 pm)Dan wrote A friend of mine has just told me that he has just passed 5151 in Wallsend out in service following repaint.

(14 Feb 2014, 6:29 pm)Tom wrote 5151 done the last 17 around Rosehill tonight (terminating at Wallsend), so will be on the 17A's tonight.
