So with work on Billy Mill and Norham Road starting soon the traffic and delays are going to build up.
How about if there are major delays on the 80 seperate them from the interworkings to minimise delays to 40/41?
What will the 310 and W3 do since the bridge is closing to be demolished?
Seen today nat ex coach with the front display not fitting to the screen and the side display scrolling the via points and the rear display not fitting to the display as well

I wonder due to GNE only trialing 9109 on the X21 whether or not they merely used that bus to evaluate a similar layout (with tables) to what the Streetdecks down in Brighton have.
On another note referring to the Rare and Odd workings thread, I think the Streetdeck will more than likely be kept and become a spare for the X21 but on the otherhand, the X21 (full route) doesn't operate on evenings and Sundays either. Therefore, I don't know if GNE are due anymore Omnidekkas ut if they are, one could perhaps become a spare with 9119 seing use elsewhere or returned to Wrightbus.
(31 Dec 2015, 1:12 pm)Dan Have just seen an 8 crossing Wearmouth Bridge in Sunderland - was a bit of a surprise to say the least!
Go North East has stated on its Facebook page that the Queen Alex Bridge is closed due to a police incident, so all services are diverting via Wearmouth Bridge.

Earlier this year Go North East had a customer survey on their website seeking feedback on the demonstrator vehicle used on the Pronto X21.
Does anyone know if the results of the survey were ever shared with the customers?
(31 Dec 2015, 1:19 pm)R852 PRG A spare OmniDekka for the X21, should more arrive, would be a good idea in my opinion. While it's not to the same vehicle specification as the Streetdecks will be; an OmniDekka shouldn't have any issues with the route, as they've proved themselves to be workhorses that rarely seem to have any issues, which has led to a popularity amongst enthusiasts. This could allow 6038 to be transferred elsewhere, as 6024/34/35/37/40/41 probably will when the Streetdecks arrive.

(31 Dec 2015, 1:49 pm)Adrian Bad idea imo. Compared to an Arriva Sapphire or MAX route, then they'd have to give people their money back, if they complained about the advertised features not being available.

(31 Dec 2015, 1:52 pm)Dan Go North East has not published results of its customer consultations since the beginning of 2014. I think it would be nice to see the results return, especially now that the company are using Survey Monkey online questionnaires, but I cannot really see the benefit to 'normal' customers in providing the results to this questionnaire?
You can find all previous customer consultation results on the link below:

They'll have lower specification vehicles operating the service at peak-times anyway, as the extra Newcastle - Durham peak time services are currently operated by Scania L94 vehicles.
Go North East's now-redundant equivalent scheme - Gold Standard - didn't offer money-back guarantees when the advertised features (full CCTV coverage and recording as well as information screens) were not made available.

(31 Dec 2015, 2:01 pm)Michael I just see them keeping 9119 and using that as a spare - along with what ever for the extra peak time buses.... although its euro 6........... is the rest of the order Euro 6 or are they sticking to Euro 5 for the time-being.
