Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions
Go North East: 2014/15 Financial Year Order Predictions
(16 Feb 2014, 7:13 pm)Tom Good idea, as I don't think the 5 needs anything bigger than a Solo SR. I think the 700 contract ends in June though, but hopefully Go North East will continue to operate it.

(16 Feb 2014, 7:22 pm)NEBCD Malarkey Could invest in the Hybrid Versas via The Green Bus Fund Round 5 or Whatever Round it is, I also have a Feeling that we'll see The New Volvo B5LH on the 27 come the end of 2014, with the Laser having standard B5's.

(16 Feb 2014, 7:35 pm)Michael Cant see them being hybrid B5LH for the laser.
Not sure about the 27, the B5LH seem to be off the road alot for the angel.
Hopefully the Sunderland Connect get bigger buses in the future... might even go up to every 10 or 12 mins.
The current Sunderland Connect ones could be used as spares

No, they'll either be offering the Streetdeck with the Merc engine or Streetdeck / Gemini 3 with B5TL/LH engine. I'd say for the 27, GNE could get away with anything in terms of reliability. With the exception of a bit of Gateshead, it's relatively flat and doesn't exceed 40. I'd say that if GNE were going to buy a Versa for another route, then I'd say that the Optare Integral with either the Merc or Cummins engine would be likely.

(16 Feb 2014, 11:34 pm)Kuyoyo The Streetdeck isn't being offered with a Volvo engine, only the OM934 Mercedes engine. The only Volvo option from Wrightbus is the Gemini 3-bodied Volvo B5 chassis either in diesel or Hybrid format.

(20 Feb 2014, 10:07 pm)NEBCD Malarkey No cascades available though unless the Quaylink was to get New Buses, plus the Cadets are to Withdrawn come the end of 2014, so I would think it is likely that the M2/M3 may get New Buses.

(21 Feb 2014, 5:52 pm)Tom Think the 1 could do with some deckers, possibly through cascades from the X9/X10 when that receives investment or even the X1.
The Omnicity I had today was full with standees too, so I defiantly think it would be worth it.
