I see the Short Notice Cancellations page has been updated for tomorrow.
Quite a bit cancelled, including the first 309 of the day from Newcastle, and the last 1 of the day from the MetroCentre. Pretty poor to be planning to drop first and last services, and not getting these covered at the expense of trips during the day when passengers have alternatives in earlier/later services.

Ambassadors festive work drinks today so no car
I forgot what a pain the service is.
3 21s didn’t turn up. Not really new news that the first runs out of Chester are a disaster since the riverside move. Then 3 turned up at once!
X39 didn’t run (one of the hundred odd cancellations not listed) so I’m stuck on a 309 which is a painful experience. A 55 minute commute is at over 1 hour and I’m still in sandyford.
(20 Dec 2023, 11:17 pm)mb134 I managed to find it on Google, but it doesn't seem to be otherwise accessible through the website now.
Hardly "open and honest".
(21 Dec 2023, 12:46 am)Ambassador Yes it doesn’t even appear in service updates.
I could check ‘news’ but they’ve inexplicably left all their gas lighting strike articles up.
It’s nice having the ineptly run GNE back isn’t it?

(21 Dec 2023, 10:45 am)Adrian Looks like the 'Short notice cancellations' bar has appeared along the top of the website again!

(21 Dec 2023, 11:40 am)Andreos1 I'd like to think it was the #powerofNEB, but I've a feeling we will be told it was planned all along or just a mere coincidence it appeared not long after the conversations on here this morning.

Interestingly Cobalt have put out festive travel advice signposting the Stagecoach app but advising GNE passengers use bus times for a more accurate experience….
In the most amusing disruption update…it appears the Santa Bus ran early through Barley Mow and many people missed it. Bustimes suggests it ran 15-20 mins early in parts
To their credit (well the volunteers), GNE posted an update apologising and sent the bus back out at 20.15

Looks like a really bad accident at Bede College.
Durham Road in Sunderland is currently CLOSED at Bede College all traffic is being diverted with the road closed between Lidl and the Barns pub.
Police, fire and ambulance are on scene with reports the Great North Air Ambulance Critical Care car is en route.
Looks like half of the Deptford drivers are going to the derby, looking at the cancelations today:
