It should be updated at some point this morning.
Now that the Volvo B9s on Cobalt Clipper are 4-years old, I would expect a re-branding exercise at some point this year.
Norham Road Bridge is due to re-open again shortly too - perhaps it could all coincide nicely with that?
Could the 309/310 end up remaining at 17 vehicles if another spare could be sourced from somewhere?
Also, I was speaking to a driver the other day and he said that he agreed that they should be changed to run standalone on Mon-Sat rather than interwork but it would cost too much money. Could the drivers not do 2x round trips on the 309 (5 hours) as the total driving time for a round trip picked up at New York with no delays for most trips would stand at 4hr 24mins with 2x lots of 7mins at Haymarket and 2x lots of 11mins at Blyth (with an extra minute running time towards Newcastle between W.Bay and NT Hospital. The van changeover times from Percy Main to New York on top of the above would stand at 15 minutes there and 10 minutes back.
