(22 Apr 2016, 4:04 pm)DaveyBowyer When the Streetlites enter service at Deptford, could they end up being used for some normal Fab 56 runs as well as the N56 during the evenings and depending whats on (football, good weather etc), Sundays?

(22 Apr 2016, 4:06 pm)Dan Yes, the N56 will be operated by the two red spare Streetlites.
They'll have the Next Stop Announcements programmed for the daytime 56 too, but I doubt it will be a regular allocation as the two red Volvo B9TLs are usually sufficient.
They won't have the announcements programmed for the Drifter just yet, but I imagine they will be allocated to service 60 a fair bit, if a branded vehicle is unavailable and the Streetlite isn't needed on the 20.

(22 Apr 2016, 6:24 pm)DaveyBowyer I don't agree with brand dilution but if given that the PVR of the Fab 56 stands at 5 vehicles during the evenings for instance, could GNE not end up allocating the 2x red Streetlites on a regular basis (every evening if available) given that they're the same specification (including e-leather seating) to save on fuel costs vs a heavy duty B9TL?

(25 Apr 2016, 10:18 am)Michael New timetables are now going online for the Sunderland changes.Is the timetables only showing rectangles for anyone else? Just looked at the 2/39 and 8/8A and 9 timetables and this is what I could see:
Currently in the black and white format.

------------
One surprise in the changes is the 38 dropping to hourly (combined between Park Lane and Hollycarrside Hewitt Avenue half hourly with the 238)
X36 dropping to hourly, no surprise tbh.
2/2A - now half hourly (every 15 minutes combined) - 39 is now part of the timetable.
33 - every 15 minutes between: Sunderland Fawcett Street - Vicarage Estate Church View - half hourly to the docks.
61 - back to half hourly on Sundays

(25 Apr 2016, 11:45 am)Andreos1 Wonder if the Versa's left spare from the reduction in service on the 2, will see use on the 39?
I haven't looked at the PVR, but if they are apreparing on the same timetable...
Interesting to see the North Sunderland changes happening- again.
When will they crack it?

(25 Apr 2016, 11:54 am)Michael Won't be enough, the 39 will need 7 buses, in total 17 Versa's could be needed..... unless they take the ones from the 34/34A to make up the PVR however my bet will be Scania's from the 20/20A ONCE the streetlites enter service, will go on the 39.
The Versa's could go on the 33, if I've got the PVR right or they could also be used as spares.
The Spare Citaro(s) - 1 stays at Deptford for the 35/36/60, 1 to Washington or Riverside.
MPD's stay on the 38/238
X36 dropped from the Fast Cats?

(25 Apr 2016, 1:51 pm)Andreos1 Does the 39 need the capacity offered by a Solar - particularly when it operates via two of the most congested bus corridors in Sunderland.
Thanks for confirming PVR.
