Aye haha. To be fair, if it did transfer to Stanley on Thursday, I wouldn't have thought a day would have been long enough for them to get driver familiarisation done to all drivers. I was surprised to see it out yesterday to be honest.

Minimal familiarisation will be needed, if not non at all.
They have the same cab layout as the Solos

Hi everyone

Does anybody know the best priced ticket for a return journey between Newcastle and the tanfield railway tomorrow and would the x30 be the only bus that passes 

Cheers

Chris

Hi 
£4.70 I would imagine as the purple boundary is Tanfield a Railway so won't be anymore than £4.85 and £4.70 is usually the return fare price.

Yep, I got a photo of it at Milburngate 20 mins ago.


RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - June 2016 - Andreos1 - 11 Jun 2016

5333 has a bit of a lean to the left.
Guessing it dropped and couldn't get back up.

Just left Sunderland.

And left all logic behind, anyo,c as the registration isn't sequential. AZU!

Clearly taken before one of the traffic lights on that island next to it was demolished! Saw that at 5pm with an emergency light response vehicle next to it - whole pole broken with the light laying on the ground, accompanied by a couple of large pieces of car bumper!

Ouch! Though I have to say that roundabout is a Hellhole, I'm very lucky I managed to catch the Streetlite in the first place, A car nearly got infront of it!

Will the MetroCity be out on Sunday, just picking up and dropping off friends in the area early on and late on and may try and chance a photo of it in the area.


RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - June 2016 - biglugs@yahoo.com - 11 Jun 2016

Well looks like I won't be seeing it in the morning since the service doesn't start until after I leave the area, though I may drive past the depot on my way. Thank god for light nights, may get it when I get back.

It's the 901. And only until lunchtime, it seems.
