A big update to the Go North East: "Buses By Brand" collection.
As a recent thought, I decided that, as well as creating an online interactive fleet list that will be continuously updated every time vehicles transfers are complete (obviously once I've completed each set), I would also make an archive. Though this archive is somewhat limited given that I only started taking photos in September 2012, it will begin now.

Under the new name of 'Go North East: "Buses By Brand" - Past & Present' (creative, I know), the BBB can be found here

On that page, you can navigate your way to the present section (which you were able to see before) or the past section.


As a note of updates:

In the present section, we see the addition of the "Crusader" brand and the "NHS" brand. In total, the 'present section' of the BBB collection now holds 50 sets. In the near future, more sets will be added once new services are branded and they lose their plain coloured base livery, and those vehicles that retain a coloured base livery will also gain a set, under the appropriate colour, of course!

Below are the photos that have recently been added to the 'Present' sets:

In the past section:

A direct move from the present section, a complete "Route 19" set.
A new arrival - the "Crusader" set. Renowns, of course! Incomplete.


Does anyone have any suggestions as to what brands I may have gotten a photo of since September 2012 which are now defunct? Many thanks in advance.
