Also, the final "Toon Link" Volvo B7RLE/Wright Eclipse due for repaint, 4980 (NK54 NUM), has now arrived at Saltmeadows.

(28 May 2015, 1:58 pm)palatine3833 wrote 4979 is also present I believe.  I'm led to believe that this along with the coaches are all to receive seat belts for recently awarded scholars contracts in Hexham (won from Howard Snaith)

5229 is present at Riverside, apparently a swap for 4979.

(28 May 2015, 2:42 pm)Robert wrote He did but this doesnt eliminate the possibility of 5229 taking 4979s role. If 4979 is there and for the reason stated, i dont know why 5229 wasnt chosen instead. It would keep the 5s allocation the same vehicle.

(28 May 2015, 2:55 pm)Dan wrote Plans can and do change.

I believe both 4979 and 5229 are to receive seatbelt modifications, with the former already at Thorntons for said modifications.

She's got to be pretty good of she's managed to get both parts of her licenses they don't just  give them away! I'm going to say it was probably mechanical

The first Heworth bound 4 at Concord arrived at 14:24 with another right behind it at the same time, this would of meant there was no Service 4 from The Galleries for around 30-35 Minutes towards Heworth, after those two departed there was nothing for 10 Minutes until the next one arrived at 14:34, with another following suit at 14:39, then there was nothing for 15 Minutes until another 4 arrived at 14:54, this was followed by another at 14:58, I then of course boarded the 50 in which I didnt see a single 4 between Concord and The Galleries, which would of meant another 10+ Minutes gap in Service.

Not aware of any others.

Sedgeletch Road is closed still I think. Traffic should be lower than during term times, especially on Biddick Lane

(28 May 2015, 7:30 pm)Swiny1 wrote Oh great... hoped some may go elsewhere. Are they for X70/X71, 15 etc..

(28 May 2015, 7:34 pm)Swiny1 wrote Ha. I just have visions of them standing parked up in Stanley bus station all day

(28 May 2015, 7:40 pm)Robert wrote Probably what will happen. I imagine they will be allocated to service work though.
