Does anyone know what will happen to the 2 NEXUS SOLO SR's at Deptford once they loose the 37/73 contract from July as they will only be needed on the a night for the 135/136?

(06 Jun 2014, 6:41 pm)Robert wrote Well, i would have thought so. Especially as this is his second accident with the last one a few years ago when a biker went underneath the bus and was killed (not the recent one in Craghead) and now this. However, Paul is now back home and has been interviewed by both BBC and ITV and at the end of the ITV report it said the following: 'He says he has no plans to hang up his bus keys yet and if he has a speedy recovery he could be back behind the wheel in the next few weeks' which can suggest that he will be returning which to me is very brave of him. On one of the reports he said that he was 'Only doing his job' and he was actually embarrassed at all the publicity he was getting from the public for what he had done. Im sure both reports will appear again on Look North and ITV Tyne Tees in the late bulletins tonight.

Just looked at the timetable - I suppose that they are feeder runs for the 74A?

Several 'characters' from here, spammed the GNE fb page, querying the advertised WiFi and checking that it would be available on the mpd.
