Well that went well didn't it
Was more to save on them having to repaint them again so soon after they were previously done for the 51/52 - chuck some vinyls on and that's another 2 years out of that last paint job.

Who's placing bets on how long that'll last?

I reckon it will last a while.
They've got form in suddenly finding out funded services are viable, once a competitor starts sniffing around.

Looks like Percy Main have picked up 653, 654 and 655 so maybe the 342 will be Solo then. It is Solo today but don't know if will be same during the week.

It looks like the solos are going on the 340/341/342 and the 317 is going Streetlites unless its just pure coincidence that there was a Coaster 1 on the 317 this morning

Solos made up the remaining boards on the 317, so I'm assuming it will be the 317 and 342 which are Solos.
340/341 will probably have a mix of Streetlites and B9TLs as before. (apart from evening/Sundays)

309's looking much better today timekeeping wise with the extra bus and Blyth layover! Was getting worse than when Arriva used to run the 308 with a PVR of x4 and 60 min round trips back in the day!
Well done GNE, finally! No more sloppy Sunday service!
