Just looking at the timetable, I got the 16:21 from Sunderland, and that Solo SR should have worked the following bus at 16:33 for it to have got back to Park Lane when you saw it at 5:30 ish

The old red and blue Go North East livery has been eliminated from the operational fleet with the repainting of ex-Elcock Dennis Dart 8289: Y558 KUX into the new red livery with Northern fleet names.
Only news given on the Enthusiast Area this week!

Daniel - I hope you don't mind but I'm just using your photo to show everyone that corner at Wrekenton where that bloke got knocked over by the 56 a week gone Saturday.
The latest I know is that the man is still alive but he's in a coma in the hospital. He's apparantly suffered a fractured skull and has a bleed either side of the brain.

No worries! I really wanted to do a massive caption for that one, explaining why that corner is no good et cetera, et cetera... By the time I had done two or three photos at the beginning, I really couldn't be bothered. :L
Thanks for the update, but not good to hear! Thoughts are still with him and his family.

Between 15:00 and 15:30. I had intended to stay longer but my camera died on me... It was constantly out from 09:00am! :L
Had intended on editing the above post but they'll go unnoticed now (as I've taken so long to caption them all)! See below:

Included the Northern ones despite them not being particularly unusual. Didn't manage to get a photo of the ones below:
- "SimpliCity" 8321 on "Drifter" 61 service
- "Northern" 3971 on "South Tyne" 88 service
- "Northern" 8264 on S1 service
As a side note, what has happened to 8266? Four or five days on the trot it has been missing from the S1 service!
