Seems like GNE will be using 6000 for the city site seeing.......stagecoach are going to be using their open topper on a coastliner service from Whitley Bay to North Shields.
Hopefully if GNE go on to secure this service for a number of years they may invest in Streetdeck open top like those in Edinburgh........or perhaps this is one of the 33 DD on order.....with the 6000 being back up......specially if Newcastle planning low emission zone in city centre

(07 Apr 2019, 2:42 pm)JP6004 Just Google city sight seeing Newcastle 2019 and pops upJust Googled it and I get a page on the City Sightseeing website showing the Gateshead Newcastle tour but its only showing some of the sights, if you go onto the all destinations part of the CSS website Gateshead Newcastle is not there so must have come to an end.

If GNE were operating it wouldn't City Sightseeing have specified their livery must be applied? I can't recall ever seeing City Sightseeing operating in other cities in the operator's own livery.
I presumed GNEs open top was just for corporate events, private hire etc?
Has anyone captured it out of Saltmeadows depot?
