Are 6911 and 6912 at Percy Main yet? Never seen them, and there seems to be a high amount of Cobalt Clippers and Coasters being used on Scholars.

6912 has been present at the depot but hasn't moved from the spot near the front of the main shed, there was an engineer doing some work on it last Thursday.

5338 seems to be moving gingerly this morning, took it ages to move along St Marys way towards the traffic lights.

X31 terminating at Royal hotel and then right at the roundabout, following one way system up to the roundabout and then onwards to depot.

Metro minis just omit the bus station.

All else terminates or continues onwards from the ASDA, omitting bus station.

As of 1522 now open again, 3 minutes after giving out the first instructions on where to terminate.

724/725 are currently on the 18, according to the app.

I would imagine the Versa's have left Crook now?

Apparently to the app 6017 is on the 309. If so is it at percy main depot for good or on loan

It is indeed on the 309 to remove any speculation.

Possibly relates to the first three items on the news page. 6915 was one of the ones that hadn't been repainted, so possibly doing that before sending it across to Percy Main with 6017 covering until then?

There's currently issues at Percy Main depot due to the wind blowing off part of the roof.

I believe that will be the one I saw being sanded down in Saltmeadows, or the one that had just been painted.

8324's blind is scrolling, although it only says "Chester-Le-Street".

Looks quite smart when it scrolls, as it doesn't look cramped.

Fault with the display on that bus. 8307 is the same.

Depot hopes to have a sufficient number of spare buses next week to get it off the road for it to be looked at.

Looks better when it scrolls though, can Go North East not have them that way? ;)

Neebody reads them anyway so I can't see the difference it'd make [emoji1]

I actually think the single point looks smarter.

I saw 8307 passing through Crook heading towards Durham at 3pm with engineering driving

I seen it in Sunderland this morning on the 8/78. Must have been taken off when it got back to Chester.

Looks like the reason Percy Main needed another decker is because they operate the afternoon 665 instead of Saltmeadows. I thought it was strange that Saltmeadows operated anyway unless it done something else after.

The AD122 ends next Sunday, will the Solo's be withdrawn for repairs?, if so where will they end up after until the AD122 re-starts again next year?

Have 619, 4942 and 4944 been withdrawn yet?

Has the 168 moved to Washington as I was told solo 705 has moved back to Washington

686 has a full amber led display replacing it's previous white one which must of been faulty, looks horrendous given it still has side/rear white led's.

No it’s still at Chester-Le-Street, 708 is the bus for the 168

Thank you

When will 619 be withdrawn? as it is out on 686 today.

Looks like it'll be after the AD122 finishes next week now.
