(12 Apr 2019, 5:00 pm)Malarkey But it would've been easier to just fit usb's to those 3 Solos. I think with service changes upcoming that 672 has likely been earmarked as a spare due to a reduction in PVR.

(12 Apr 2019, 5:08 pm)N1cholas it would have been easier to do that but why add usb's to a spare bus when the other indigo's at percy main dont have them, i have a feeling deptford may need more than 3 replacements
Am at heworth for the metro replacement, but a lot of 900 setvices are not using stand R and are leaving from A,D, or C, surely the drivers sbould know which stand they are supposed to use

(13 Apr 2019, 3:50 pm)GuyParkRoyal Similar issue at Central Station while the majority of drivers are using Bewick Street, I have seen passengers getting off a bus at the Quaylink stop in the front of the rail station and others getting off at the stop on Clayton Street West.All drivers have access to pace notes supplied by Metro (which are sometimes incorrect!)

When is The Loop getting new buses? Are the 49 and Blue Arrows/Green Arrow brands getting axed?
Stand at heworth is usually C i believe towards jarrow. Wonder why it changed to R

The correct stopping details are in the ticket machine which every driver can see.

Message clarified afterwards though.
Huge mix up was between hebburn and jarrow. Metro was running to hebburn, nexus people saying turn around at hebburn, and we were running to schedule. Somebody somewhere got confused haha.
Aircraft flown on:

Favourite aircraft: G-STBL/G-ZBKL
It was all a huge joke. I landed back from NYC yesterday into Newcastle via Heathrow. Monument had someone downstairs telling us to go upstairs. I asked where the replacement was going from, I was referred to a colleague upstairs who was not even there.
I managed to find the replacement on Market Street. Get to Brockley Whins and the Metro just pulls out as our replacement gets in. No one on the platforms. Newcastle-bound platform showing 'South Hilton' on the departures board. Train comes in - we all get told to get off and get on on the opposite platform.
Absolute shambles last night. Not GNE's fault but Nexus were appalling.

(15 Apr 2019, 4:33 pm)Michael Does anyone know where the red zone boundary ends near Penshaw?
Is it after or before?
I can't find anything on exactly where it ends, the map of the zones is useless.
