Jh have the metro replacement contract on the 22nd and 23rd of May between Regent Centre and Airport
RE: JH Coaches of Birtley
JH are filling in for Arriva on the 64, this week. I suspected this might be the case when one of their E200s passed us both ways with timing looking like route learning for the 64, last week, but I've seen a Streetlite on the route, today. Not sure how many boards they're covering.

Understand they're covering 6 weekday boards and 5 Saturday boards - judging by the Arriva vehicles tracking on Bus Times (and back-tracking on the same site), the working JH are doing are the daytime boards, with Arriva retaining the boards which stay out on late turns.
RE: JH Coaches of Birtley
So far clocked a handful of presidents, Streetlite and the E200 that was out on training, last week.
I did have a photo to attach but now realise I can't do that directly, any more.

RE: JH Coaches of Birtley
Saw Thirlwell's YM03 EPA on the A1 today, but noticed that it's fleetnames have been removed (at least on the driver's side) - can anyone confirm whether it's still with this operator or if it's moved on to someone else?
