Its a Red Arrows B9.

We don't know what colour it will come out as, its 5 years for 6001-6007 next year, this is when GNE normally re-fresh the colour on the bus... its not know if 6049-6055 will be repainted as they're only 3 years old.

We also don't know this years orders or plans for cascades, well Citaro does but he can't say, we'll have to wait and see what colour it comes out as...

Speaking of the X1.
Spotted this on an ex-London President.

Ooh, which one has ADL tampered with.
Maybe London General did it

Noticed that some of Percy Mains duel door B10's are getting done to become DDA... how many of these will be done?

Is 4906 VOR because its yet to be done?

That is not necessary in my opinion, the 9 is cursed.
When they go I think the 17 will become a brand

Apperently 5151-5159 are getting withdrawn

5152 has arrived at Thorntons for DDA modifications.

Who knows? Never noticed it before, but imagine it has been there a while.

5152 has arrived at Thorntons for DDA modifications.

Anyone got a list of buses there?

5151 and 5158 are awaiting withdrawal, so these will not be done. Although they are marked as withdrawn on Go North East's latest Fleet Allocation, they remain in use at Percy Main at present. Any others which cannot be replaced by other vehicles in the fleet will have to receive DDA modifications, as demonstrated by 5152 and 5166.

4906 received DDA modifications back in September 2015.

Anyone got a list of buses there?

Christmas and New Year service information available on the link below:

Andreos1 will be happy to see that service 4 has, once again, extended to Houghton-le-Spring from Fallowfield Way once every hour this Boxing Day. Great example of a bus operator taking a risk on Boxing Day, and either taking the rough with the smooth, or the risk paying off.

The Q3 and Q3A are certainly interesting ones!

All depots, excluding Crook and Peterlee, will be open this year.

Presumably Hexham is closed as well, with the "TEN" services terminating in Prudhoe or Rockwood Hill, or am I missing something?

Not really it's just the 43-5 mixed with the current Q3.

Is there a mistake in the 47 timetable?    19:45 ex Eldon Sq followed by 19:50 ex Eldon Sq.
