Definatley the driver. It was a regular occurance for drivers to stand at that location when the section of pavement was still there.

The side looks good but the lack of anything on the front panel or the bit of it that bends round to the front side makes it look like they missed a bit!

(15 Nov 2013, 9:23 am)GMitchelhill There probably wouldn't be so much of an issue with Bazzas photo if he had used the proper crossing point. But I was informed by a driver that he darted accross the road right in front of the bus he was driving. Said driver also said the GNE Health and Safety representitive was going to have words with Bazza whom quickly scarpered when he saw the guy approaching him.

I think the demonisation of Bazza has to stop, I am not defending his actions whatsoever(I have been critical of him myself), I strongly condemn the way he gets some of his photos, trespassing is against the law and running across bus stations to get a good shot is downright stupid and dangerous and if he gets nicked or run over, there is only one person to blame, himself...
As for things like reporting drivers for whatever and trying to get them sacked, I agree with Mr Mitchellhill, that is downright sneaky and sly, lower than a rattlesnakes arse, no call for it without a bloody good reason.
However, I think it has been made plain in the past that Baz has learning disabilities, probably somewhere on the autism spectrum and I think we can figure out that he may have a different concept on things to the rest of us, what we see as criticism, even if it comes across as harsh, he sees as bullying, unfortunately I dont think anyone anytime soon will be able to help him figure that out...
I have said it before, I will say it again, deep down in Bazza, there is something good, I dont see anything in him that is evil and one thing is clear, the kid loves his buses, maybes a little too much when we have seen the lengths he goes to to get the picture, and I genuinely dread the day either he gets hurt or someone else does because of his actions

Whilst I agree with you to a point, the lad doesn't seem to do himself any favours.
I don't know him personally - but have heard a lot of him and unless Nexus or GNE act, then as you say, it coul0* ((,,? (??

People sitting slagging him off on here, doesn't help him or anyone else.
However, @sibbers85 from Real Radio has a photo on his twitter feed of the first contestant in 'toot for the route' of Barry standing with his frisbee and horn.
Having heard how much Bazza hates being called Barry, I wonder if Sibbers knows about him too?

I have bumped into Bazza on Numerous Occasions over the Past 10 Months since I met him on a Freezing Cold Snow Hit Day in Stanley whilst waiting for the Versa Demo 9133 back in January. I have had no problems with him Personally as Fozza said he always Talkative and rather Enthusiastic when it comes to Buses which I can understand as I been the same since I was 4 Years Old.
Obviously I haven't gone to the extent Bazza has by going to Depots and into Out of Bound Areas of a Bus Station to get photo which he could of got from the Pavement, Like I said Yesterday and other Members have since, I think people need to back off and leave him alone, As it isn't helping either way, from my point of view it's making the Situation even worse than it already is.
Now I think after talking to the Gateshead Bus Station Manager and the GNE Health and Safety Rep whilst taking a few photos in Gateshead Yesterday of the Citylink Versa, I was firmly warned not to go on the roads after Thursdays Incident and I think other Enthusiasts should take note of this, as looks like Nexus are clamping down. Now I Nexus should come down on Bazza like a ton of bricks as he now done it on Numerous Occasions and got away with it as he has done a runner and I have witnessed him do it at Park Lane on few Occasions also, whilst myself (Yesterday) and other Enthusiasts get the Brunt of it which I think is unfair to be honest, as most of us do actually follow the Rules to some extent. Myself i'll take photos in a Safe Location of the Bus Station.

I am no saint I have on a few occasions took a few photos in the middle of the road, but only when it is safe to do so, not when there has been 4 or 5 Buses coming towards me. But I am not the only one who has done this either.

It would appear judging by this post on GNE's Facebook Page about the Citylink Versas, that Bazza was at Gateshead Interchange again Yesterday. I Nexus should file a Restraining Order against him which will prevent him taking photos in any Bus Station in Tyne and Wear, if caught taking a Photo he has to pay an Automatic Fine. Now some may find this suggestion very harsh towards Bazza, but the only thing I can think of that'll stop him from breaking the Rules and getting away with it over and over again, whilst other Enthusiasts take the Brunt of it.

Put him up in front of the beak and slap an asbo on him with some proper restrictions, i.e.
1. Stay away from Saltmeadows at least, a few hundred yards
2. Absolutely no photos in any bus station
Or
An 80 notes fixed penalty
(17 Nov 2013, 11:32 am)Michael They won't because it's his human rights...
I agree, even though i have nothing against him and i personally don't go out taking pictures of buses, i agree something needs to be done.

I'm afraid I have some great news that'll put a smile of the face of every Bus Enthusiast in Tyne and Wear.
After getting caught taking a photo on the sly in Park Lane of the New B9's on the 56, I was told a little wee story about certain Bus Enthusiast that everyone loves to Hate, which occurred on 2 Separate Occasions over past week or 2.
From what the Station Manager told me whilst telling me off, Nexus have decided to "Spoiler Alert" Officially Ban "Bazza" from taking any photos at any Bus Station which is owned by Nexus, This after Bazza on more than Occasion went out into the Middle Island to take Photos in Park Lane despite being told not to do so beforehand. Bazza then on both Occasions apparently "Blew a Gasket" at the Nexus Staff who were Managing the Station on those 2 separate Days.
I was told that Bazza should receive a Letter through the Post in the next Week or so, if he hasn't already and the Ban will come into affect Immediately, I then asked if at any point did the Nexus Staff insult him by calling him "Barry", To which the Station Manager replied "Yes as that's his Name", I then said that's why he kicked off, as we all know he hates been called "Barry", To which I got a Confused look and a Simple Reply of, Just make sure in Future when you take Photos that is no Nexus Staff about otherwise write a Letter for Permission to do so, then the bloke walked away.
Furthermore I am Curious as to whether this Ban for Bazza means that he is unable to then get a Bus from Park Lane/Gateshead etc as well as been unable to take Photos, Surely if he Banned then he is Unable to use the Bus Station altogether.
I thought I would just make sure Everyone was made aware in case anyone else gets a Ban or Something by Nexus for Taking Photos etc. At least something has finally been done about Bazza. Hopefully he takes it Seriously and Doesn't step foot on Nexus Property to take Photos.
