Eldon Square Bus Station will be closed while Newcastle City Council carry out essential resurfacing work, from 10 until 28 June.

During this period, most Go North East services that usually serve Eldon Square will arrive and depart from Newgate Street instead. This is with the exception of service 74, which will temporarily use Stand Y at Haymarket Bus Station, and services 684 and X85, which will run from a temporary stop located near the Eldon Square Bus Station entrance.

Stops on Newgate Street will be renumbered NG1-NG5 to help you easily locate the correct boarding point. The table and map below provide a full list of stopping locations for effected services.

If you usually board your bus on Newgate Street, your bus stop there may have changed so please use the table below to find out where your bus will stop while Eldon Square is closed.

All other city centre stops will still be served as planned.

Much like 'the war' in the Fawlty Towers episode 'The Germans', it seems that we are not allowed to mention the phrase "City Transport" (oops, sorry for mentioning it) in any context whatsoever. So what better place not to talk about Cit...(nearly mentioned it again), erm, "Them" than in this thread here....

I guess there are certain things you are definitely not allowed to mention, aside from the name of the company.

For example, and as stated elsewhere on the forum, the ongoing dispute between former drivers of the company not to be named, Nexus, and Go North East should probably not be talked about, nor should links be posted like this one here.

I'm also guessing, because the judge incorrectly ruled against the director of the company who shall not be named in an employment tribunal, then we probably shouldn't link to the case either. 

There are probably other things we shouldn't mention, like the oddly named companies registered at Companies House by a certain director of a certain company either, especially as this information isn't easily accessible or in the public domain and is hidden behind a shrove of secrecy like some sort of super secret society or something. 

These are just some guidelines of how this thread should operate. If the rest of the forum know of any things about the company that definitely should not be mentioned, then please list them here so people don't get into trouble.

Northumberland Travel have commenced operation of route 471 between Alnwick and Thropton, taking over from Liberty Coaches.

They have acquired two PSVAR-compliant Mercedes Sprinters for the service, the origins and identities of these are unknown as they rely heavily on generative AI for their social media posts.

Idk what to say but

Really 

There's absolutely nothing here to mention bar the fact they want to withdraw the 644

Anyone know what has happened to South Shields 140.  It used to be in the top depot all the time parked at the rear of depot but every time I have driven past over past few months it is nowhere to be seen 

Is it stored elsewhere now?

Seeing the possibility that 6330 could be the first bus to be painted into the newest fleet livery.
I might aswell start the new thread for when these repaints happen so it does not get mixed up with the 2019 Livery thread.

Really was not expecting them to repaint the 2017 Angel Streetdecks in the 2026 Fleet Livery but hopefully this new fleet livery doesn't look bad on the ADL's when their time comes for a repaint whenever that may be

Anyone know who's won the Mouth Of tyne festival shuttle bus this year. Can't seem to find anything

8803 pos saying BENSHAM COURT and BENSHAM jockey then winlaton 10.51

Does anyone know which way the 2 and 78 are going next week, when the BBC radio bigweek is on, as the road in front of Penshaw is closed.

It might have been the weather discouraging exhibitors from travelling but it's notable that this had less space in the Sally Army hall than in previous years. Normally they have the big hall for models and the small hall for books but only the big hall was in use for exhibits and stalls, this year. The small hall was used as a dining room. 

All the same, Eldest and I found some nice new models for his collection and I picked up some ideas for Husband for their stand at Highways UK, this year.
