Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2016

(10 Jul 2016, 8:22 am)Designline wrote I know it sounds like ludicrous idea but to me it makes sense, shouldn't NK06 GXG (4653) and NK05 GXO (4659)migrate south of Tyne to join the others and send two pulsars north for the X14. (Sorry if it is only me that thinks that but it make logical and mechanical sense)

It's not ludicrous idea at all, Voith Gearboxes are a lot better at climbing Large banks than ZFs, Which the scanias have.
A Euro 5 E400 stalled on the bank around crag side a few weeks ago due to the Eco setup of the gearbox not doing it any good on Large banks like that.

Pulsars are also have a great turn of speed, Which comes in handy for a route like the X14
