It should have posted this message "New coaches delivered for National Express are Volvo/Caetano 7120: BX65 WDA, 7121: BX65 WDC, 7122: BX65 WDD and 7123: BX65 WDE. Vehicles transferred over the weekend are Volvo B10BLEs 4903, 4906 & 4907 from Riverside to Deptford and 4911 from Percy Main to Deptford; DAF SB120s 8270 & 8271 from Deptford to Washington and 8259 & 8260 have been withdrawn from Deptford." remember to edit my post as soon as the Go North East bot does its task e.g get rid of the fleet news on this post

Heard rumour the GNE Bot was put on Gardening Leave, and has since joined "Secret Lover" Sunderland AFC Director of Football Lee Congerton who is also on Gardening Leave, and they will spend Christmas together.

Anyway why are people implying the GNE Bot is a Man, could be a Woman you sexist pigs.

One (6028) was allocated today.

(21 Dec 2015, 5:26 pm)LeeCalder wrote Possibly to cut down on the amount of President's allocated to the 82/82A ;-)

Only 1 today, I think, the rest were on the X1. Probably to put them on the the 82/A are 25L.

Actually, I'd like to correct you.

It was 12 minutes late, 25 is an exaggeration

4908 's front blind and 5300s rear blind need fixing.

One for Dan, 5304's front blind wasn't working earlier. Side and back were, but all black on the front.

6096 also needs its destination screen fixed.

No cups of coffee for Citaro at work haha.

I photographed 5304 in Sunderland and the destination was working fine.

Can't be a coincidence that all these problems arise while I'm off for three weeks..!! ;-)

Wish you would all bugger off with these destination problems.....convinced you are making half of them up

(21 Dec 2015, 7:24 pm)Davie wrote I photographed 5304 in Sunderland and the destination was working fine.

I was in Sunderland at roughly 12-2 and seen it twice, both times the desto wasn't on.

Has 8266 been off the road for accident damage lately? I saw it yesterday morning and it had a gleaming white panel on the side of it and the rest of it looked in desperate need of a wash.

It's probably had a new panel fitted, there's a few buses going around like that at the minute.

(22 Dec 2015, 2:09 pm)Davie wrote It's probably had a new panel fitted, there's a few buses going around like that at the minute.

It has - the new panel is the one that i described as 'gleaming white' (minus branding so its obviously a recent thing).

Dan or Citaro, Do you know which service will be the next to receive WIFI? (Not including the new buses on order)

(22 Dec 2015, 3:45 pm)Michael wrote Dan or Citaro, Do you know which service will be the next to receive WIFI? (Not including the new buses on order)

Yes - further buses will be retrofitted with Wi-Fi next year.

, i would imagine the Quaylink will be one of the first to get it fitted.
