In addition to getting the news done tomorrow, I intend to get all of the 25 Scania L94UBs new in 2001 done, and I'll also try and do all 35 Volvo B7TLs (this should be fairly easy, given that I've already done half of the job by jotting down when they arrived into the fleet, what their fleet number down in London was, etc). If I manage to get all of this done, I intend on getting the ex-Arriva and ex-Oxford Volvo B10BLEs done, given that they've joined the fleet fairly recently and haven't moved about too much, so that should be pretty easy too. That should take us up to 602/689 (approximately 87% complete).

I've been working on the fleet lists for a few hours now; as such, I've managed to complete all 35 Volvo B7TLs, both coaches new in 2001, all ex-Oxford Volvo B10BLEs, and all ex-Arriva Volvo B10BLEs (579/689 / 84%).

The Volvo B7TLs were a lot harder than I had originally imagined given that some of the vehicles were repainted red and held in storage prior to Go North East announcing that they had acquired all of them permanently. The details on our fleet lists actually represented when they were repainted in reality, but I've amended them to reflect the details Go North East gave on their Fleet Archive document (it seems most of the vehicles were held in storage until the following month after being repainted). It's a lot simpler now, and the notes section for these vehicles is a lot tidier now.
There are missing details for 6012/15/16/17/27, though I have queried these in an e-mail, so I'll go back if/when I receive details.

I haven't started the Solars new in 2001 yet, but going to make a start on them and then do the news.

Amended accordingly, and I have also added details for the second-hand Scania L94UBs as being branded for service 21 whilst at Chester-le-Street.
