Hull Trains 803 stock has been up and down the ECML ahead of the planned launch of East Coast Trains later this year.

Spotted one in Newcastle earlier on this evening

So a question that's been on my mind is wondering. What will happen to all buses that have been moved around due to Duplicates and what will happen to buses that are only used for Duplicate 

So we all know the Lothian buses. The white StreetLite and the two metro buses will be going away as they have fleet numbers 90**

But here's what I'm wondering. What will happen to 5501 5502 5504 (The East Yorkshire Volvo B7RLE Wright Eclipse 2) and 5505 and 5506 (The London Scania OmniCitys) 

Will these see public service and which depots. Has anything been confirmed what's happening to them after Duplicates end. Whenever that is

Has anyone else been noticing that alot of the 2011 Optare Versas have been breaking down? I use the Q1/2 regularly and I have been in/saw many broken down Versas. I am also thinking that they should upgrade the QuayLink buses as it is quite a main service and honestly these Versas aren't good enough. I think they should get some Streetlites or Citaros.

Looks like 5338 will be permanently withdrawn as it caught fire and the damage looks pretty substantial while operating the 6 to Stanley this afternoon. Hopefully everyone got out ok

All this palava about GCT missing out bus stops.

I've just witnessed the X45 doing the same, turning around at Central Station thus missing out Newgate Street and Eldon Square.

What about those passengers wishing to board at Wilko's?
