(26 Apr 2021, 11:19 am)streetdeckfan Did you just assume my identity?! Believe it or not, some people have lives outside of buses! I tend to discuss more important things at home like plumbing orI can't imagine how mere muggles know about the electric buses https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/1...ric-buses/
To my knowledge, my mother can only recognise 3 buses, the Arriva X46, GNE X21 and 'The Angel', and the only reason she knows the X46 is forever shouting at it when she's late for work and it's trundling along at 30 in a 60! I've no idea how she knows the X21, and every bugger knows the Angel.
I was genuinely surprised when she pointed out one of the new Yutongs since I've never mentioned them to her!

Possibly the Q1 and Q2
It was mentioned by Martijn that there for Gateshead Depot so yea. Could be for the Q1/Q2
(07 Jun 2021, 7:03 pm)JP6004 PVR is more than the order isn't it

(07 Jun 2021, 7:19 pm)Rapidsnap Yeah that's a fair point, think it's around 12 for the Q1 / Q2 unless there's plans to reduce it to 20 minute frequency.Think the X66 and maybe 57 more likely. Depends if battery would last on the 57. The power required to go up the bank would probably reduce its range
Think another idea is the 49/49A which takes 7 vehicles, so leaves 2 new ones spare plus 8809 making 3 spares, so perhaps used on the 33/33A contract

(07 Jun 2021, 7:34 pm)streetdeckfan I could see them going on the X66 like, perfect kind of route for an EV. Depending on how long ago they ordered them it might also explain why they don't seem to be in any rush to rebrand the Streetlites from the Intu brandingNeither does the metrocentre lmao
I heard that 5501-5504 (The ex EYMS Volvo B7RLEs) are supposedly going to be going on the X66, apparently 5503 is away getting an interior refurbishment in Accrington hence why it hasn't appeared in the NE yet. On a side note 5504 was parked in the rear corner at Saltmeadows today.

(07 Jun 2021, 8:02 pm)L469 YVK Why would GNE want binge drinking B7TL's on a route like the X66?Tbh it would give the Eclipses something to do instead of sitting there not doing anything
If the 6 went standalone, the PVR of the 6 would be 4x vehicles. The 6 would seem a more sensible choice.
What is the capacity difference between an Eclipse 2 & StreetLite?
