I have seen 1 Ashington e400 breakdown. I have seen 4 either breaknown or struggle to reverse from Jesmond

Why do Jesmonds max 306s have a speed restrictions but therest of Jesmonds and blyths maxs don't

Jesmond's were killed on express routes, including a good couple of years on the Alnwick/Berwick routes before they got transferred to Jesmond last year. Ashingtons, bar 7511-3, are younger and so likely a bit more reliable.

It could also just have been coincidence that you happened to see more Jesmond break downs!
