(19 Feb 2016, 6:08 pm)Ambassador Just a thought on the X21.
The launch coincides with the start of major roadworks through Low Fell for the new bus lane. Imagine reliability will be shot to bits on anything going through Low Fell for the next 8 weeks

(19 Feb 2016, 7:46 pm)BusLoverMum And it'll not be able to detour, now that the Cannon is one of its stops. With its current schedule, it can nip up Dryden road way, if it needs to.
Have to admit, I rather enjoyed the detour via Shipcote that the X21 has been taking, south bound, recently. A little more scenic than the police station and a block of flats.

I didn't get chance to mention this, this morning, since I've been having a proper numpty day and managed to leave my phone at home, but we caught the 10:40-ish 20 out of Durham, this morning, 4989, IIRC. Littl'un and I sat, facing forward, over the rear offside wheel arch, with me having the aisle (and button!) seat. I noticed, as we set off along North Road that the bus felt, well, wobbly. My backside, back and feet were all moving in different directions. I did stand up and give my seat a good wobble, since I've been caught out by loose seat pads, before, but it was rock solid, so I can only conclude that the floor itself was unstable. I also noticed some rather worrying tears in the flooring, above the aisle steps.
Call me cautious, but I think it needs checking out, if it hasn't been already.
