Although the vehicles are arranged so strangely its hard to be certain! Wish he'd put them in numerical order with codes instead of how he separates every different variation.

Whitby run the X93 which is Max. And part of the X4/4 which is Sapphire.

I guess that means maybe Sainsburys at Whitby and NHS at Jesmond. Would that also include Frequenta at Darlington?

I meant including those, just some branded services that are NOT MAX, Sapphire or Eco, these depots still operate these, you have misinterperated RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015 - NK53 TKT - 21 Oct 2015 (21 Oct 2015, 5:18 pm)Mark P wrote I misread this and now think we're looking for non max/sapphire/eco brands.

RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015 - R852 PRG - 22 Oct 2015 1494 has transferred from Stockton to Blyth, in exchange for 1502.

Just a short term loan until our MAX Pulsars are ready. Hopefully not too long so Blyth can't ruin 1494... 1502 seen on Boathouse Lane this afternoon about half an hour ago RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015 - tyresmoke - 22 Oct 2015 (22 Oct 2015, 3:02 pm)tyresmoke wrote Just a short term loan until our MAX Pulsars are ready. 1492 is in the process of being swapped with 1504 right now so we'll be using both of these on X66/X67 from Monday RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015 - Stuartphin1639 - 22 Oct 2015 (21 Oct 2015, 6:10 pm)MrPottski wrote 1416 is going to get branded this evening. Generically so I'm told. It's been done and got to say it looks worse than before all its got branding wise is MAX and three red dots, hopefully it gets fully branded RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015 - NK53 TKT - 22 Oct 2015 What do Jesmond do with their darts when solos go on the X16?

I think the Solos only go on if a Dart breaks down and there's a couple of Solos spare anyway.

Maxwells Corner is the name for the traffic lights at the northern end of the High Street where the 6/7/7a/17a turn. In other news, just spoken to Stockton's depot manager. 1502/4 are due to get 'MAX' logos fitted at some point prior to Monday. They were due to be done this morning but external circumstances have delayed it. |
