The 21 seems to be having similar problems. Two Durham bound and a Chester bound all pulled in to Gateshead together, followed by another Durham bound, some 5 mins later.
Oh and I can't see the Wireless SSID being broadcast on 6049 for info.
Are the snide comments necessary?
(20 Feb 2015, 12:26 pm)MarcTheA4 wrote Possibly congestion in Newcastle City Centre. I haven't been out today, so I can't comment on what it's like there. But I have seen exactly this happen before.News to me. I've been there for the best part of two hours, and everything is flowing nicely. Usual at the Percy Street lights, but nothing out of the ordinary.

(20 Feb 2015, 12:32 pm)aureolin wrote I understand the concept of traffic congestion, but you're clutching at straws! I was curious to know if anyone had any factual information as to what's causing the delays.
On another note, is 6049 being tracked via AVL? Just struck me, as the social media team gave me an (accurate) ETA, rather than the usual "have you managed to travel yet?"

(20 Feb 2015, 4:35 pm)Tom wrote To be fair, I don't think there is any need for that?
I can understand when he is posting irrelevant information, but he is only saying that the PVR on Sundays decreases? If anyone else was saying that I doubt they would get a sarcastic reply back?

(20 Feb 2015, 4:42 pm)Tom wrote Not sure, think I'm going to head over that way tomorrow, so I'll let you know what ones I see/don't see.
Seems to have been a lot of Solars on the 35/36 lately though...
