6070's announcements conked out, this afternoon - Durham bound, in Birtley, the audio started firing off several destinations one after another and then stopped for the rest of the journey. Visuals were fine.

I was. I had both of them. Don't get rid of them until tomorrow. Made the most of the metrocentre being quieter as I needed some stuff from IKEA. Didn't bank on the glut of ladies that do Bingo filling up the S1, mind.

6050 could do with a "Severe Deep Clean", stunk of Horse s**t throughout the entire vehicle this evening which made for a rather unpleasant journey home, more so upper deck which resulted in a few going downstairs, and others getting off the bus entirely. The driver did inspect the Bus when we were at Gateshead following complaints by other passengers, but couldnt see anything, all windows were open upper deck but it made no difference, could still smell the horrible stench.

I would hope that you'd expect nothing less, on a top notch GNE bus with Wi-Fi!  Wink

The remaining Crusaders should have been commissioned last night.

Only one Prince Bishop is VOR today and it is to get an issue sorted with its lights, and is being fixed at Deptford not SMR. No Prince Bishops have been painted recently.
