On a different note - looking on satellite images of the area around adventure valley - it is amazing how many old railway lines there were that are still traceable.

I've been to Brasside once, only because I'd been to the Arnison Centre and I was waiting for a bus then I saw the 7A displaying Darlington so I got on that, but it was actually heading to Brasside first.
(24 Jun 2014, 9:35 pm)Andreos Constantopolous There certainly was - what stands out about the area around Adventure Valley (to me anyway), are that the bridges over the Wear, the curves, the junctions with the ECML, the spurs to the Leamside Line and the line which left the Leamside Line by the P&R, being replaced by the section of dual carriage way between the A1 and the top of Claypath - are that they are all still visible in such a small area.

Who was taking pictures of the buses parked up at back of the Wheatsheaf depot today at around 11:30am-12pm.
I said alright to him, he looked like he was 50/50 about saying alright back, as it looked like i was gonna say something else to him about taking pictures as i walked past, cause at that time, he had just took a few pictures.
I know some people can be dicks about seen people take pictures of buses, but If hes on here, i mean no harm!

Got on the 2C to The Galleries earlier on, and this Lass and her Boyfriend got on the Bus, Both have Problems but I couldn't help but Laugh Inside when the Lass asked for 2 to Sunderland as they stopped on at The Galleries as turned into the 2A, Rather waiting 10 Minutes for the 2C coming in the opposite Direction, here in exact English if you can even call it that, is what she said.
"Cangi I hadve twoog twoog Sungerwand" - Drivers Reply "The look you give someone when haven't understood what they have said..........could you repeat that" - "Cangi I hadve twoog twoog Sungerwand" - Drivers Reply is the same again - The Lass the asked for her Boyfriend to come down the Bus who in plain and simple says - "Two to Sunderland" - Driver Reply "Certainly while trying not to Laugh" - Meanwhile I trying best to hold my laugh in.
Honestly I felt sorry for the Driver, but I did think he handled the best he could as was very difficult to Understand what the Lass was saying.
I remember years ago a German sounding got on the 61 at Park Lane and asked
Passenger: Return to Me Lane please
Driver: Where is that
Passenger: I don't know, I vill know ven I see it...
Driver: Do you know the place where it is
Passenger: No, Just Me Lane
At this point the driver looked at a stage list and asked the guy to point out where he wanted to go...
Of all the places to go he was wanting the Mill Inn...Being easily amused, I laughed about it for months
Some great memories in this Chronicle article. I remember it all, bar Ratners and the Ritzy.
