(09 Dec 2020, 7:22 pm)Storx Looks like there's been similar problems on the 57/57A with 2813 but instead but that's decided it wasn't going into North Tyneside and broke down at Annitsford - https://bustimes.org/vehicles/191629#journeys/91921366, replaced by 7543 (bit of luxury on there tonight) from the same point but going the opposite way so guessing it never ran to Whitley and back. No doubt a full size bus for the next few days (again) since 2809 seems to be already off the road.
