(07 Aug 2015, 4:32 pm)Dan wrote I've attended a large number of publicity launches held by Arriva, Go North East and Stagecoach over the last few years, and I must say that I was stunned by today's event. It was great fun, and there was a huge turnout (must have been close to - or in excess of - a thousand people over the course of the six-hour period). The original post Go North East put online advertising the event had 300 likes, 489 shares and 223 comments, which is pretty good going by all accounts.Must say there was a fair few people there when I rocked up at around 1030. I only really snapped the bus then left pretty much straight away but people did seem to be enjoying themselves.
Go North East has uploaded a large number of photos to their Social Media pages over the course of the day, and there seems to be quite a few positive comments all around about the event. Sadly there wasn't a special See it do it selfiebus, but the Coast & Country one made a return again... Were you caught on camera?
If I've been snapped today it is likely to be in enthusiasts photos and some random snapped me whilst I was walking through Sunderland eating chips
