Some buses have started to be moved already but on Saturday 10th May, Nightingale coaches will officially leave their depot at Greencroft for South Moor which is the end of the street with the Chippy on the corner. This could possibly link to why they had buses taking enthusiasts to their depot a couple of weeks ago from Durham.

Heard an interview earlier on Radio Newcastle.
Interviewing a member of the NCC authority, it was stated that the council are in the early stages, starting investigations into the feasibility, costs and location of stations between Woodhorn and Northumberland Park.

Stations would be of a P&R type, to encourage commuters into using services.

Nothing of note today apart from the argument in Boro with two folks trying to get a four wheel walker onto a crowded 4659. Buggy in the disabled space, others with assorted trolleys on the front seats. Give the Stockton lad driving a mention for his patience (1115 5 ex MBS)

(30 Apr 2014, 6:06 pm)Dan wrote The B10BLEs which appear on the 71 (PVR 2) are only allocated when they aren't required on the Lime owing to vehicles being VOR. Although B10BLEs should be allocated to service 71, the first point of call is to ensure that the "Lime" receives these over other vehicle types. Again, as I've already mentioned, imagine a Cadet on the Lime? There's also the issue of the swap needing five vehicles: Chester-le-Street only have four.

I'm positive Go North East would have considered all options and as they've not chosen to go with the ones we've suggested, there must be a reason why that option was considered to be worse than services 67/69.

Actually it is 3 with the 3rd one being spare when am photoing the 71s it has at least 3 vehicles

Had the misfortune to be at an event with work at Copthorne Hotel today. Went for a drink with colleagues at Wetherspoons afterwards.

Noticed a fella at the very top of the Tyne Bridge (and I mean the top)

He seemed to be there for ages.

Then....the poor bugger jumped. He ran and jumped. It was unreal, like a scene from a movie. My heart felt like it stopped, utterly horrific

Don't suppose the poor sod survived
