They just need to keep up the regular standards

(08 Jan 2017, 11:06 am)Pulsar wrote sorry if this has been said before but does this transfer mean 6132 will be allocated to the 434 on weekdays or will that be something else?

(08 Jan 2017, 11:08 am)S813 FVK wrote Yes, 6132 will be allocated to the 434/448:

(08 Jan 2017, 10:52 am)Dan wrote It has.

6143 is due to receive its promotional livery next week.

(08 Jan 2017, 12:48 pm)Jamie M wrote 6127 has aquired some serious damage whilst on the X30 to Stanley in Whickham. The engine bay has fallen, almost touching the road. As such, the passengers were transferred onto the 6.
Last night, 6121 reversed into a parked X30 52?? at E.S, meaning the passengers had to be transferred onto the 6 then, too. The windscreen of the Omnicity remains smashed.

I'd hope that isn't GNE's policy like.

(09 Jan 2017, 10:41 am)dannygee wrote This bus has broke down loads in past few weeks. It could also be going for the livery to be applied

(09 Jan 2017, 8:11 am)S813 FVK wrote 5443 is on the 16/16A board that 4896 (which has been withdrawn) used to operate today. It should be in Durham in the next 20-30 minutes and it will do the Stanley - South Stanley 16 later tonight.

No working rear destination yet but it is much quieter than the Euro 5 examples.
