Stagecoach North East: Rare & Odd Workings - May 2017

(30 Apr 2017, 1:50 pm)L469 YVK wrote Surely it would now be time for Arriva to follow suit like GNE / Stagecoach and install GPS radios. Would be far better and allow many services to get regulated when in trouble and get back on time.

What? Spend money? No chance and god help them keeping new drivers when they will only be earning a maximum of £9/hr for years to come.

10638 19203 39722 39723 39724 39725 39726

And 22345 is down to be transferred to but still at Walkergate depot

Any idea whats been withdrawn from Slatyford as a result? I'm assuming the remaining 6 darts will all be going

Apparently 4922 was withdrawn straight after the BaC show yesterday.
