All those times I've listened to iBus announcements in London, I'd never have guessed she was from the North East.

(26 Feb 2016, 5:41 pm)Michael wrote They do!, shes does a great job.


Is it in the contract that GNE aren't allowed to accept Buzzfare tickets or has GNE just done it on their own accord. (accord the right word?)

And while I'm firing NSA questions, do you know roughly when Cobalt Clipper, Citylink 58 and Quaylinks will be changed to Emma's voice? 

Cheers

(26 Feb 2016, 6:07 pm)Michael wrote Has 6307 arrived yet?

Also when will 7124 enter service?

The news about 7124's arrival is on the GNE fleet PDF, it hasn't been put on the news yet, as no doubt Dan has been busy with work and having a social life!

(26 Feb 2016, 6:10 pm)Dan wrote No - 6307 still in Ireland. All other StreetDecks now branded.

7124 delivered last Friday and has already entered service, as has 9104.

I will get round to the news tomorrow when I go on the laptop.

(26 Feb 2016, 6:13 pm)Michael wrote Thanks Dan, no prob's was just asking, don't need to rush and do it! haha

Can I add to the recommendation to ride the AD122? - even if you just stay on for the round trip - though best to choose a day when it's not typical Steel Rigg weather (it usually manages to snow whenever we take visitors there).

It must have been a challenging life for the Centurions, dressed in short skirts and sandals.
