Bridge End is by the Boat Inn. Where the road crosses the R South Tyne. RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2016 - Michael - 27 Mar 2016 Any updates on the repaints?

RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2016 - dannygee - 28 Mar 2016 Dan when i seen 5155 today you could just tell it was on a 40 as it still hasnt been reupdated.

Do you mean the blinds showing Wallsend regardless of what way they are going? The 40 and 41 always show Wallsend for some reason.

The 40 and 41 always show Wallsend for some reason. But the driver chooses the destination. I know during weekdays and saturdays the 40 is every 15 mins and 41 every 30 through howdon and 15 through battle hill. So every 2nd bus should display hadrian park. On a evening and sunday they just run every 30mins so it should be Wallsend - wallsend. For example it is For the 40 40-Wallsend - Wallsend 40- wallsend- hadrian pk 40-wallsend- wallsend 40- wallsend to hadrian For the 41 41-wallsend- wallsend 41-hadrian pk -wallsend 41- wallsend - wallsend 41 hadrian pk to wallsend. Sure dan or citaro can comfirm what driver should display etc RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2016 - South Tyne Lad - 28 Mar 2016 (28 Mar 2016, 9:34 pm)Tom wrote Ah ok can't see it being around for much longer anyway I'm sure when I first started this forum a year ago, There was posts about 5155 being withdrawn, Its been a year since then.

Ah right I guess Wallsend is ok as it is a circular to be fair but I think passengers can get confused with the destinations.

It was horrible haha! Made dodgy noises all the time and those red seats were rock hard. More or less every time I got the 17 I had that.

Would quite like Omnis on the 17 but not sure where they'll come from so it'll probs be Solars. Not too bad I guess RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2016 - South Tyne Lad - 28 Mar 2016 (28 Mar 2016, 9:46 pm)Tom wrote Would quite like Omnis on the 17 but not sure where they'll come from so it'll probs be Solars.
