(29 Jun 2017, 8:45 pm)palatine3833 The Tempos delivered today were:
1307 (YJ09 EYL)
1309 (YJ09 EYO)
1310 (YJ09 EYP)
1311 (YJ09 EYR)
1308 was supposed to come but had a few defects to fix first. So it'll either be 1306 and 1308 that come up later in the week, or 1308 and 1312
They should enter service pretty soon, with 6 Solos transferring to Blyth - I'm assuming 2810, 2811, 2814, 2817, 2818 and 2819. Although they might keep 2811 as the spare for the 49.
The Tempos will enter service on the 56/57/57A apparently, directly replacing the Solos.

Seems like most of the MAX branded buses have been designed to accommodate advertising boards (Darlington Omnicity's and X93 don't seem to have any though), single deckers only tend to have them on the nearside now owing to the positioning of the emergency exit door on the drivers side, meaning it's normally just a large MAX logo on this side.

(30 Jun 2017, 7:26 pm)South Tyne Lad Will be one of the ones destined for Ashington, Id imagine the delivery route from Scarborough ( Where the bus was manufactured and registered ) will be over the moors via Whitby and down the A19.
