Sunday journeys returning from Sunday 21st November to services X24 and X34.

Yes, The timetables on the Nexus website are showing a frequency decrease to every 30 mins on each E service on Monday - Saturday daytimes.

If the Nexus timetables are correct, this change would free up quite a few euro 6 E300s to move to Newcastle to help meet the upcoming CAZ requirements.

E300s who's upgrades were paid for by South Tyneside Council.

I think that 31st March 2022 is the default end date for all COVID temporary registrations

So the combined frequency is 6 per hour., which is the same as the Sunderland to Shields 505/506 PTE service back in pre dereg days.

From the Stagecoach site:

Changes to Services E1, E2, E6 from Monday 22 November 2021
12 Nov 2021 to 18 Dec 2021
Due to the ongoing national driver shortage, we are making some temporary timetable changes to Services E1, E2 and E6.

The Monday to Saturday daytime timetable on these routes will be revised, with each service running every 30 minutes. Services E1, E2, E6 will combine to provide a bus every 10 minutes between Sunderland and South Shields via Seaburn, Whitburn and Marsden.

Evening and Sunday buses will continue to run unchanged.

We’re sorry to have to make these changes, due to the national driver shortage.

Today was prime example of the driver shortage at Wheatsheaf with huge holes in the E services.

May be a stop over, but it would be great if a lot more came and sent the manviro's for scrap....

Yesterday (20/11/21), 22026 has had it's doors smashed in on West Denton Way, West Denton. The bus was leaving the bus stop directly outside the Go Outdoors when someone threw something which smashed the doors. West Denton has a real problem with ASB and this is not the first instance of smashed buses etc....

At least one of the Yorkshire darts has been in service not sure on fleet number seen one of them doing a service 1 towards Seaton Carew.  I was passing it going towards the town centre. This was on Saturday though.

Think Hartlepool got two of them. Cant say which ones as I'm based at Stockton til next week.

Because the VIX machines used by Stagecoach have the vehicle's data stored in the base plate rather than having to reprogram the ticket machine with the right fleetnumber every time a faulty machine is replaced. So vehicles should always track as themselves (apart from the single issue a few months ago where one of the 69-plate E400MMCs was tracking as one of the B9TLs but other than that)

Yes indeed, I did look and think the Dart was tracking as 39666
