Im on about the potential customers who see these shiny new buses and think if they get the bus it will be one of those and they end up with a 58 plate cast off with thin hard seats. no next stop annoucements and TBH i don't even think it has WIFI?

You don't know how many times I hear I wish this had USB's, or I wish they worked.

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

Aye your right if I remember GCT actually won it then they decided to take it on full time.

Agreed in a way though mind the 25/28/28A probably deserve them first as they just get cast offs aswell, unrefurbished Versa's being the latest. Least the 28A would benefit Kibblesworth.

367/8 or 5509/10 are going back to East Yorks.

Steven Knight messaged me at 11:50 with that news!

Confirm back on twitter they are staying with Go North East

Apologies all, I was relaying information from a normally solid source. Would appear he was fed the information erroneously.

Any updates on what is happening with these B7RLE's?

They've moved from where they've been for months! So some progress. Noticed one in and amongst the main lines of vehicles when I passed earlier tonight.
There was an Omnidekker looking sorry for itself further round.

Omnidekka is 3996 (it's one of the former convertables anyway) which is being used as a Christmas Tree before being dispatched for Baked Bean Tin Conversion.

These two were parked outside the maintenance area of Riverside this afternoon after months of not being moved, hopefully some movement on them eventually coming into active service with Go North East following a repaint of course.

Can they afford the paint????

With EYMS becoming a separate Go Ahead Group company, presumably inter fleet transfers to/from EYMS won't be quite as easy as they have been.

They have both been through MOT today.
