Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2016

Have the new engines made much difference to the running of the Geminis?

I'm not sure which ones have had new engines fitted recently, but they all seem to fall into three main groups:

Run fine: 7608, 7611, 7612, 7614, 7621, 7622, 7623

Run fine for a while, then need fixing, "fixed" for a while then go bad again: 7602, 7604, 7605, 7606, 7607, 7624

Been hopeless for a long time: 7601, 7603, 7613, 7615, 7616, 7617, 7625
