Blue X-lines 6310 on the 20, today. Is this a permanent move or is everything messed up from the weekend?

I'm starting this thread because I've seen so many 21s today that's only going to Gateshead. The one I got was on time, the app said Newcastle and there was nothing on the short notice cancellations or any service updates. I've checked and one of the buses on the list is running, so it's either they haven't updated the list or it's just incorrect. 

It's shocking to think they don't even communicate with their passengers. I've got work tonight and I'm praying that they don't terminate at Gateshead. There's an app and social media for a reason, there's tools that help cross post updates, I don't understand how hard it can be to improve customer service, nevermind applying a new logo to buses or changing timetables to "improve" reliability. 

While I understand we're all people and there's only so much they can do to make resources stretch, where most frustrations derive from is the lack of communication. 

I'd love to hear what everyone else's experience is, whether anyone else has noticed this or any other frustrations, I'd love to hear them.

Announcement - Directors Statement

After 14 years of occupying our current "home" in Felling, earlier today we received the phone call we all dread.....
Our landlord, Bizspace, has decided they will no longer be renewing our lease and are looking to take back possession. We have to leave the premises in Felling by 31st March 2024.

The reasons being given by the landlord is due to the current state of the roof (which the landlord has repeatedly ignored), and as such, turned our neighbours into making the decision to leave. This means that we will be the only occupants of the entire warehouse from the end of January.
We have tried to negotiate and plead, but alas, it falls on deaf ears. The only response we get now is..... "The board have made their decision to claim back the whole of T Block and then review our options sorry".

In 14 years our rent and bills have been paid on time, never ever late. Our concern now is where do we go with around 30 vehicles, both group and privately owned collectively - and that's without the tools, equipment, forklift truck and spare parts we have accumulated - all of which we are expected to be removed in less than 3 months.

If anyone can point us in the direction of somewhere suitable in the North East of England who could accommodate us please get in touch.
We have the largest collection of ex Tyne and Wear PTE/Busways service vehicles and we would like very much to keep them in the North East.

Teesside Airport is to be re-introduced.

Ben has been sharing details of his latest scheme, which will involve demolition of the existing station, re-building it and then introducing shuttle buses between the station and the terminal.

Admin may want to place this elsehwere:

As some will have discovered the regime has issues new laws out of parliament that directly affect those who use cameras and videocameras, including mobile phones. As true to a paranoid right wing state, filming in public places could be construed as Terrorism. Police forces immediately added 'Filming' to reports for the public to click online and give details of anyone filming or taking photographs. This is a rapid change to civil rights, primarily as a result of the guilty verdict found against Magomed-Husejn Dovtaev. The problem for enthusiasts is the majority won't know where is classed as a 'sensitive area'. In addition the fact that police forces have added this on the online reporting pages, enthusiasts will have be aware around residential areas. There's always one who would make a report.....
