RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - RM2186 - 11 Jan 2015 (11 Jan 2015, 3:10 pm)Malarkey I wear Glasses when I am watching TV etc at Home but other than that I never wear them, I would think if I did wear them whilst out and about I may see an improvement in what I can read from a Distance. That may well be the case as I do not need to wear mine for driving etc but I wear them all the time and it definitely helps RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Diamond One - 11 Jan 2015 (11 Jan 2015, 12:38 pm)RM2186 Depends if you like driving a boat or not! I like boats too there fun RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Adrian - 11 Jan 2015 (11 Jan 2015, 3:49 pm)Racer_Experience I like boats too there fun But you're not going to get very far putting one on a bus route!

As well as bus transport I like water transport Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - R852 PRG - 11 Jan 2015 (11 Jan 2015, 3:53 pm)aureolin But you're not going to get very far putting one on a bus route! The customers on the TTX make such an ordeal on Twitter of the X9/X10 - you'd think they were on the bloody Titanic! (11 Jan 2015, 3:55 pm)Racer_Experience As well as bus transport I like water transport I think both are classed as public transport. RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Scott - 20 Jan 2015 (31 Dec 2014, 4:46 pm)Dan It's the 58 and X66 which share 5389 and 5390. What was the routes that were scheduled to get double decker's at the same time as Red Arrows and Tyne Tees Express, but then didn't receive them? Usually a red Versa acts as an additional vehicle for X66 on Saturdays. RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - L469 YVK - 20 Jan 2015 The West Durham swift was scheduled to but they had to pull out apparently.

I think they were but then it was changed for some reason... maybe this year?

Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - R852 PRG - 22 Jan 2015 (22 Jan 2015, 9:50 pm)Racer_Experience some engineers said Streetlites for 8/78/78A and 45/46 also X66, Versas not new ones but some repainted for Q3 Presuming you were told this today, that's old news now! Chances are he is just speculating. When I have passed conversation with a driver, they have often said after explaining I was an enthusiast - that we often know stuff weeks in advance, before they find out. EDIT: Just come back to me whilst posting, when the OmniCities started to arrive at Chester for the 50, one driver said he got a shock when he saw one in the depot, he hadn't been expecting it at all. RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Michael - 22 Jan 2015 (22 Jan 2015, 9:50 pm)Racer_Experience some engineers said Streetlites for 8/78/78A and 45/46 also X66, Versas not new ones but some repainted for Q3 All the bendies should be gone by Sunday/Monday. (Citaro confirmed this) replaced with rigid (is that the right word?) buses. X40 will be replaced by Q3 in July, rumoured atm to run every 20 mins but interworking with the Q2 which will be reduced to every 20 mins. (Not confirmed but rumoured) I'm expecting streetlites on the Lime... looking forward to seen what they get. X66 will get new buses. As for the rest no idea. As for deliverys... Citaro comfirmed that these would arrive between March and May.

When they roll out in (hopefully March!), I'll be getting a Lime Daysaver and going silly with it! RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Tom - 22 Jan 2015 (22 Jan 2015, 10:09 pm)MarcTheA4 I too am looking forward to seeing Streetlites on the Lime. How do you know there will be Streetlites going on the Lime? Saying ''I am looking forward to seeing Streetlites on the Lime'' and ''When they roll out'', certainly suggests your sure it will be getting Streetlites. RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Michael - 22 Jan 2015 (22 Jan 2015, 10:09 pm)MarcTheA4 I too am looking forward to seeing Streetlites on the Lime. Even though the lime is a long route, its one of my fav's, i dont know why. Remember its not confirmed for streetlites, its just what i think! I have no idea why my last post has 2 different sizes....

I'm just trying to say I think Streetlites will be the best option, and I hope they're what is ordered. Perhaps Mr.5284 can shed some light...?

Might hi-jack one and pop along to Riverside to see my ex (4852) and show off my new girlfriend! RE: Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions - Tom - 22 Jan 2015 (22 Jan 2015, 10:12 pm)MarcTheA4 I know, I know. I'd love to see Citaros on the Lime, but can't see it happening, so I reckon Streetlites. Not sure about the 45/46 getting Streetlites though. I think it will be: B5HL's for the Crusader - Mercs to 45/46/X70/X71, then Omnicities to 17 and possibly 67/69. Streetlites for the Toon Link - B10BLE's withdrawn, B7RLE's to 95/96. Streetlites to Lime - B10BLE's withdrawn. Streelites to X66 . Solos to North Tyne Links - MPDs withdrawn. |
