Variation Accepted by SN: Operating between City and Grindon given service number 18/19 effective from 05-Sep-2016. To amend Route and Timetable.
Looks like the changes might not be working on one part of the service.......

There are no comparable single deckers on the market in terms of capacity and they can't upgrade to double deckers due to one of the routes having a low bridge. Obviously, the E300s can't keep going forever (maybe 2 years left in them). It will be interesting to see what the powers that be decide to do.

(05 Sep 2016, 5:27 pm)S813 FVK wrote Exactly - if they just used Handy Drive etc both ways, deckers would be fine. Most drivers go to Newcastle via Dunston, out onto the A1 and off at the next sliproad onto the bypass thing that follows through onto the Redheugh Bridge yet come back to the Metrocentre via Teams & Handy Drive.
