6929 causing issues just west of Lindisfarne Roundabout. 

Looked as though it had failed in the inside lane of the dual carriageway section. Parked with hazards on.

721 has entered service at Hexham, doesn’t look like the tracker is working as it doesn’t appear on the app.

Assuming they're still coming, new buses will need to be delivered to B&H first, as the rest of the batch is still in service.

RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2018 - ne14ne1 - 10 Sep 2018

There’s a few Angel21s that are rather annoying because the previsouly mentioned silencing update for the NSAs has either not been applied or has not applied successfully.
I forgot to take the fleet number of this morning’s vehicle but this evening it’s the Night Angel liveried one that is announcing the service and destination twice.

Looking forward to seeing the brand.

Does this mean some of the temporary Solo loans have finished? (All the Solo's/versa's) go back to the original depots)

Don't have a clue, saw it from the 680 about half 3 and it was still there at half 6. Guessing not, it on the 655/656 with 3996 which I'm guessing took the other kids home. Was gone by half 8 when i got home again

They're having some repairs completed at the moment prior to transfer to Washington.

Dan you'll be happy to hear there's a slight error in some of the new destination programs at stanley - outbound trips on the X30 to newcastle have the old scrolling format, although the inbound stanley trips have the new format. Seen 3x RK streetlite follow this pattern and 1x toonlike omnidekka.

Close, but no cigar

I noticed this on 5236, Newcastle X31's have the new one, but not X30's.

I haven't seen a Citaro on the 74 for a while. I use the 74 whenever I can between Eldon Square and Westerhope and 668, 669 and 671 are usually allocated, with 667 also used sometimes.
