Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2015

(08 Dec 2015, 10:55 pm)MrPottski wrote I had 4649 out of the depot this morning for an X66, side screen worked, then didn't, then stayed off. It didn't drive too badly either. Next up was 4654 for two trips to Barnard Castle. Seat was comfy, and that's about it. Last up was 4643 for two X26's, this is one of the better OmniCitys, if a bit in the rattly side (aren't they all!) by the end of the week, if allocation is correct, I'll have driven 7 Scanias in 4 days. I fear for my bones.

Some of them feel a bit like a rollercoaster.

Typing on my phone is fun on them. Would take me 10 minutes to badly write this little post on a windy road!

I noticed that one on the X67 didn't have its rather too short bits of foam padding in front of the seats    behind the step towards the back, on Saturday. Can't say that didn't make me nervous, though after a journey on a toonlink, the other week, I wouldn't mind if the windows had foam padding on, too. Bumped me 'eed, on a bend, I did.
