(19 Mar 2017, 2:04 pm)GuyParkRoyal Stanley Travel 6018 / LK03 NJE is currently parked in the depot of  Kingsleys Coaches.

They store some buses there for scholars which are over that way, much like they do with the buses over in Sunderland and Byker.

Are the ones in Byker anywhere near the railway line (National Rail not Metro). There's definitely some white double deckers next to it, but I'm not sure who's.

Yeah, they are in the WB Kerr depot and you'd certainly see them from the mainline.

I believe the open top is just for private hires as opposed to service work, from what I have heard anyway.

Yes, it will be used for the Durham Brass Festival in early July. It has been repainted pink gold instruments to correspond with the identity of the festival.

It has also been reregisted to E2 STX, a registration previously held by Enviro 200 MH07 EPY.

That'll explain the one I spotted on the A1 northbound on Sunday night then! Thought they were heading for Thorntons or something though, rather than to Stanley.

Most (if not all) of the Volvo B7s have entered service now - unless it's the same ones I'm seeing all the time!

They are the usual allocation for scholars and workers services in Bensham/Team Valley area, now.

Saw one of their new deckers on a Nexus workers service tonight.
It was the first time I'd seen one in service.

They haven't got the blinds sorted it appears!
Cardboard number displays in this weather, leaning against a window that's prone to moisture...

Seems that Stanley travel have the bus for the Durham brass festival. Is this an annual thing? 

Can't say I fancy the top deck, this morning!
