(30 Aug 2016, 6:24 pm)passenger_10 Possibly helping out Arriva on the Tall Ships Park and Ride North? I was in Blyth on Monday and saw several Garnetts and Jim Hughes deckers, so its a possibility Arriva had subbed some work out to Pheonix too.
Go North East appeared to only be using their own buses for the South Park and Ride.

Hi,
Just seen and sampled the new Optare Solo SR it is KX14 FHZ which is ex Malta (appears to be ex-BUS 344), it's equipped with two air-con units from its days on Malta. It's currently operating on the 333. Does anyone know it's been purchased or if it's a short term loan?
