6929 causing issues just west of Lindisfarne Roundabout. 

Looked as though it had failed in the inside lane of the dual carriageway section. Parked with hazards on.

Assuming they're still coming, new buses will need to be delivered to B&H first, as the rest of the batch is still in service.

There’s a few Angel21s that are rather annoying because the previsouly mentioned silencing update for the NSAs has either not been applied or has not applied successfully.
I forgot to take the fleet number of this morning’s vehicle but this evening it’s the Night Angel liveried one that is announcing the service and destination twice.

Don't have a clue, saw it from the 680 about half 3 and it was still there at half 6. Guessing not, it on the 655/656 with 3996 which I'm guessing took the other kids home. Was gone by half 8 when i got home again
