PB0002404/391 New BUSWAYS TRAVEL SERVICES LTD 901 (901) Heworth Metro South Hylton Metro Effective date 25 Jun 2022 End date 26 Jun 2022 Quite surprised, can't remember the last time Stagecoach had a metro replacement.

Due to no single operator being able to cover the Metro Replacement 901 on this weekend, Nexus has requested assistance from all operators regionwide to run the 901. Should see lots of variety from operators not usually seen on Metro Replacement. |

Hopefully they could get some spare buses & drivers. Also who has the 900 I mean, do we even know who is Operating that massive metro contract? |

In August 2018 they operated the 900 using some 19 vehicles operating Benton-St James. Later on the same weekend saw five Metro replacement services operated (numbers 900-904), rather than just the usual 900/901, though these were operated by GNE and ANE. https://www.flickr.com/photos/143409085@...9790101777 |

RE: Stagecoach Metro replacement
Stagecoach and Arriva by all accounts for the 901 tomorrow, bare bones suggest with 19 minute turn arounds the whole service could be done with nine vehicles.
