Yesterday i went on 5332 on X10 and driver said he got told by leading driver it might be transferring to deptford , if so id imagine 5331 will join it for the 9 ?
Also what next stop screens are programmed into 6099 and 6100 other than 56

Personally, I would send 5229-32 to Percy Main, for 19, and 4978-82 to Riverside, for 67/69, allowing 8306 to go to Chester for 34/34A, 8307/08 to Crook for 18 and keep 8309 for 88/88A. 695/6 could then go to Peterlee as spares for X6/X7 and as replacement for 705. 705 could then go back to Washington as a spare.

For the 61?, then the "Black Cat" Scania's on the 9 and 38?
I can imagine Deptford will gain 2 extra spare Citaro's, as they'll have a 3 routes with Citaro's (X5 already has a spare), 35 and 61.

Since 5298 has returned to Deptford has it replaced anything? As in one of the other Merc's for refurbishment?

5298 has not been refurbished, it still has the current Moquette over leather.

Yes. 4945 was supposed to transfer with it but 8303 stopped that from happening:

6310 was at Gateshead this afternoon, couple of drivers had just got on before I got the photo, presumably doing familiarisation as it was gone when I went past in the car on the way home.

5332 and 6051 had a coming together at Eldon Sq this afternoon 6051 had scrape damage on rear offside corner 5332 had similar damage to the nearside rear corner, what looked a lower panel was lying on the ground behind 5332
RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2017 - Ambassador - 08 Sep 2017
Obviously a result of the disruption in Durham today but there's more Angels in Gateshead at the moment than there are in heaven ?
