A question that covers this operator and others, besides GNE and Arriva what other Nexus bus liveried buses are operated by the independents?

(06 Jul 2015, 11:57 am)Malarkey wrote I havent seen it since I photographed on the Sunday afternoon after Durham Rally, nor have I seen it in Service or any other Photos around the region since then, best bet is to drive past the GCT Depot one day.

The White E200 is on the 37/73 today for anyone who wants a Photo.

(06 Jul 2015, 12:19 pm)jaimzm wrote Am going after the Enviro 200 at weekend and Metrocity won't be out till they start the 23 service

(06 Jul 2015, 12:46 pm)Malarkey wrote Cant help but think that the MetroCity will struggle around the tight roads of Springwell/Eighton Banks and Birtley on the 23 due to its size at 10.8m I think, Has GCT purchased this Vehicle outright or is it with them on a long term demonstration period.
