(22 Jan 2015, 9:30 pm)Dan I've updated our fleet lists to remove all of the loanees and add the Solos and Presidents - I make it 26!
This is before you start including their various Renault minibuses, which have in the past appeared on normal public service work as a last resort.

It seems Gateshead Central Taxis' van-type minibus fleet is also on the increase - stored at their depot near Heworth - I can make out the following registrations:
  • Renault NA10AVC, NK58DNN, NK57GGO, NA57LGJ, NK06LOJ, CN55EXR, NK54KTO, 
  • Peugeot MD14JVA
  • Fiat NU64YCV, NX14KHF, and another example
The vinyls on the side of the minibuses mostly state up to 16 seats - so I'm sure these will have to form part of GCT's license of 20 vehicles - especially if they are appearing/have appeared on public service work?

(22 Jan 2015, 8:24 pm)citaro5284 Well according to their Operators Licence they have a licence for 20 vehicles as shown below spread over 2 sites.

The Jarrow site no longer seems to used, and the Holly Hill site is NOT the one on Stoneygate Lane.  It is the one at bottom of Holly Hill at Sunderland Road Junction.  

Just guessing, but I wonder if the Stoneygate site is not registered.  Also there seems to be a decker left at a site on Chain Bridge in Blaydon.

I don't think a vehicle has to be left overnight on premises at the operating centre? Just has to be registered as operating from a centre with a valid licence?

Just read over some of the appropriate legislation, and this is the impression I got, too.

Providing I've read it correctly - anything over 8 seats has to be registered as a PSV vehicle and form part of an Operating License.

To be fair they could own any amount of buses they wish as long as they only operate a maximum of 20 in service at any one time.

I'd be highly surprised if they're that organised. Their contingency plan is probably contained in one of their imaginary policies...

Have to say I wonder what Kingsley's are up to as very few of their deckers are actually on the road since they lost most of their contracts...

They do a lot of Private Hire in Sunderland. Regularly see their deckers with loads of kids on board.
