5436 or 5438 is at salties branded , as 5244 is now branded whey aye five o , seen it getting branded earlier
RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2016
6070 went all coast Rd with its NSA again announcing Albion St and another Coast Rd stop.

It only ever happens heading southbound between the Stone Trough and Allerdene Bridge then corrects.

Noticed the app lists Gateshead College as a stop on the 21 too, guessing some old route stop name was loaded up?
Wistfully stuck in the 90s

If it continues, hopefully they'll be replaced next year as i don't think GNE will want the same situation as the B7's... Tongue 

However they'll only be 5 years old in August next year....

Concord Bus Station closure - Tuesday 31 May to Friday 3 June 2016

Extensive highway construction work is needed at the entrance to the bus station and will result in all buses being moved to alternative or temporary stops on Heworth Road, Blue House Lane, Victoria Road and Manor Road.

Detailed notices are posted on the stands to advise passengers where to catch their bus as well as on the temporary stops.

Because it was originally withdrawn, It will more likely only have been a short term plan to get a few of them back in service, Hence why its in a state.
