It runs pretty much 15 minutes in front/behind the 28A and 69 and doesn't really offer any new links bar Low Fell to Kibblesworth which aren't already provided elsewhere and doesn't go to Newcastle either. Seems counter productive when the 28/28A are clearly struggling hence the cuts lately. |

Shouldn't they have been converted prior to use on service work? The company have essentially been actively discriminating against wheelchair-bound customers for close to 2 years at this point.

Really just stick a small solo. But really that E200 the size is a perfect fit (22 Nov 2021, 6:01 pm)Dan wrote No, it’s commercial minus a few trips on Saturday.Ah thanks. |

Ive said it before on here... it was secured so Kibblesworth would have 2x bus per hour. When the tender came up GNE were worried about a competitor getting it in there area so took it, as Dan says, most of the journeys commercially. As far as I know the first run on the morning is run by GCT... I'm not sure if it ever turns up as I'm never up at 630am!
Its never going to get "new buses" but it must pee off customers who see adverts for clean euro 6 buses, tables to work at and charging for mobile phones when i isn't ever been on a 29 with them.... and to be honest i don't think the 28a/b ever has buses with these items either |
