Is there only Dan who keeps it unto date? I imagine its quite a chore trying to keep it unto date on your own with all the movements that take place, and working all day and trying have a life too.
It would be a lot easier - but I still don't think this would be the right thing to do.
The user submissions do help out greatly, as when I do get back into the swing of things, it means I've got a lot there done for me already. I do, as Robert says, re-type it so it's in a consistent style, but still takes a lot less time than doing it from scratch. So my advice to everyone would be to continue doing that on my behalf, and they will (at some point!) be approved.
The news page also feeds the vehicle history pages, and it'd be a great shame to lose these as it's what sets this site apart from the rest. There's umpteen amount of fleet lists available on the net for Go North East, but ours is the only one which has a complete history for the vehicles as well (appreciating it's not all visible from a user's perspective at the moment - more jobs for a rainy day is making all of the old content visible again!)

Earning a living is always going to take priority over something that is voluntary. Have some patience and I am sure it'll be done when the chance arises.
Yes, the last few months have been particularly busy at work, but this should hopefully die down next month. I've barely had time to read/reply to posts on the forum recently never mind doing anything with the fleet lists.
I'm having a rare weekend off next week - busy all day on Saturday but I should hopefully have time to do some work on NEB on the Sunday, providing the hangover isn't too bad!
