568 has been temporarily reinstated at Percy Main - it should be allocated to service 434 on Saturday, with 3888 instead being deployed on a Tall Ships Park & Ride service.

More than 50 extra vehicles are required this Saturday to operate Blyth Tall Ships shuttle services, Cruise Ships shuttle services, Kynren shuttle services and also Soccerbus. As per Airshow weekend, there will be a number of temporary transfers between depots to accommodate the extra work, and step-entrance vehicles will be in operation at Riverside and Stanley.
