6137 (or 27 - definitely looked like a 7 at the end) also looks to have been partially repainted into the new corporate livery too.

I would have liked it if they had replaced the old logo on the front with the new one as used on the rest of the branding but other than that, it looks really good.

Going forward, could you please Private Message me with any faults? That, or contact Go North East through the appropriate channels (ie via Customer Services)?

I'm off work until the middle of January so can't investigate until then but I don't think this constitutes as latest news.

I only learned of the event myself half an hour before the bus was due to depart Stanley Depot. I am led to believe it was all very last minute, hence why there wasn't many people which knew about it.
