Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2020
(26 Mar 2020, 7:22 pm)missedbus wrote With the reduced services plus the school requirements, they'll probably need no more than 300 vehicles, even allowing for spares, so that's over half the fleet in mothballs. The regular services seem to need about 200 buses.
Some opportunities for interworking appear to have been missed, with a lot of vehicles having long layovers at Consett, and the aforementioned 27.
The 2 also appears to wait at Silksworth Vicarage for a long time too.



To be fair, the scheduling team who would ordinarily have several months to prepare timetables, duties and rosters are now being given a day or two to prepare things.

I’m sure we can live with a small number of services being inefficient.
