RE: Fleet List Updates
Regarding the fleet list page. Why is the power sockets logo duplicated? I pressed the second image and that just brings up "No Results"

You've stumbled across the new fleet list page, there!

One will be power sockets, the other will be USB connections (due to the growing number of vehicles in the fleets of Arriva and Stagecoach which don't have the former but do have the latter). A new symbol will be uploaded soon to differentiate between the two.

As you've noted, users will be able to click the symbols to filter the vehicles in the fleet which have this feature.

Exactly what it says on the tin: it was a test.

The new-look news section is nearing completion - the test posts were for this purpose.

Thanks.

I'll be reviewing the 'features' for each bus in the Arriva, Go North East and Stagecoach fleet this week, before we roll out the new fleet lists which now includes USB sockets.

Both of these should be sorted now.

Drop me a note if you know of any buses which have features that our fleet lists don't note. Smile
RE: Fleet List Updates
On the "Go North East" fleet list, 6134 and 6135 are down as unallocated, although they are in service at Chester and Crook.
Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

Prior to the most recent update to the news and fleet list, we were unable to have multiple buses with the same fleet number in our system. What you were seeing was the remnants left behind following the re-numbering of 6134 and 6135 to 3995 and 3996 respectively - it was bringing through two lots of information at once.

I have now corrected this so that both the old 6134 and 6135 (now 3995 and 3996) and the new/current 6134 and 6135 display on the fleet lists. Example for both 6134s below:

Current 6134: http://northeastbuses.co.uk/fleet/list.p...=all&soldF=

Old 6134 (now 3995): http://northeastbuses.co.uk/fleet/list.p...ll&soldF=2

Whilst the number of instances of fleet numbers being used more than once are few and far between in Go North East's fleet, it has happened time and time again in Arriva's fleet, which, when we eventually get round to updating the full history section for all ANE/GNE/SNE vehicles, will allow users to track through all of the different 6134's over time.

They are currently undergoing reconstruction.

On another note, the more observant among you may have noticed some minor updates to the fleet history section on some of Go North East's buses.

The original Quaylinks, Red Arrows, original Orbits and SimpliCitys, Tyne Tees Xpress and TENs have all had their history sections updated, to reflect individual delivery, branding and entry into service dates, showing photos where possible.

I will be doing this for other buses in the Go North East fleet too. They were done by bulk, by month, originally... So not very accurate!

We haven't got a confirmed date, but we were hoping to have all features fully complete by the end of November.

When it's fully completed, Adrian and I will work to continue to add content to the news/fleet lists and new Bygone Era.

As that was the reason it was at Saltmeadows for about two weeks!

Rear body repairs, and having the back painted blue.

3995 is there now for the same treatment, and 6122 has also been for that purpose.

Unless it had to be rushed away...

Guessing it is the bit in bold:

3983 is still shown as being at Chester-le-Street, too.
RE: Fleet List Updates
On the arriva fleet list solo's 2806 and 2815 are listed as Blyth when both are at Jesmond.

Although they were supposed to come to blyth, this never happened as 2816 and 2821 came instead.

Sorted - thanks.
RE: Fleet List Updates
3995 does not appear to have had a partial repaint into new corporate livery as expected, or it hadn't when I saw it on Friday. It's seats have been retrimmed though.

I know - the buses that are not scheduled to be the repainted seem to be the ones being repainted in Stanley's case at least!
