Looking good. But the offside graphics could of done with being flipped, or at least the bridge towards the back, as the graphics come to a sudden end making the front look quite bare like it's had the front replaced after an RTA. The nearside looks much better, being more flush especially around the front wheelarch. It's growing on me...

There was an unidentified (by me) person with a GNE pass around his neck who got off the TEN from Newcastle in the centre of Corbridge.

6077 has had its wheels freshly painted - but is still in classic TEN livery.
It looked like some rear panels on the offside have also been 'refreshed'.
Huh

Can't say I can get excited about them. The only one I enjoy riding on is 6135 because that one's a rocker and has a smoother suspension.

What makes 12-year-old buses suitable for GNE use (when they have been discarded by B&H)?

Is the expected GNE duty kinder than their previous duty? - or is it that their B&H duty has been so gentle that it is deemed that there is adequate life left?

How long are they expected to last?

Maybe B&H are turning a bigger profit and have bigger loads than GNE?
In turn, they can justify new double decker vehicles.
Makes you wonder what their pricing structure is like.

Mind, this is just pure speculation like and I could be totally wrong...
