Guessing it was the St Wilfs service.

(20 Sep 2018, 9:19 am)Dan wrote The W-reg President bodied Trident you mention is on loan from Kingsley's Coaches - it does the 815 scholars service from St Josephs in Hebburn every day at 15:05.

Notice
PB2010662/5 L & G COACHES LTD, 8 BRENTWOOD ROAD, SHINEY ROW,
HOUGTON LE SPRING, TYNE AND WEAR, SUNDERLAND, DH4 7LZ
Operating between Whitburn COE Academy and Bolden Lane given service
number 808 effective from 08 October 2018.

(20 Oct 2018, 10:47 am)Dan wrote Nexus requested the removal of this service due to low use.

The owner of L&G Coaches was happy to hand this one back in as there was a lot of cost in mileage associated with this service.

The blue double-decks originally suggested to be on loan from Kingsleys Coaches were actually bought outright (the owner of L&G Coaches previously being a driver at Kingsleys). The Gemini is planned to undergo refurbishment at Thorntons when another double-deck is acquired by the company.

Will be interesting if there is going to be much in the way of ambition of getting onto the proper bus market or will it be just Scholars and minor contracts only?

(09 Nov 2018, 6:02 pm)Dan wrote L&G Coaches are still going to use Tyne Dock as their main base - using the Kingsley's yard as a place for maintenance and to store additional buses at (any temporary loanees such as coaches for weekend excursions etc). Apparently A-Line were possibly looking to re-locate to L&G Coaches' current yard in Tyne Dock but it's been knocked on the head as L&G Coaches still need it.

They've also acquired two further double-decks from Kingsley's - one is white in case that narrows down the vehicle identity - and I think both of these are going to remain in storage at Kingsley's.

The blue double-decks at Tyne Dock are due to have the company logos added in vinyl tomorrow.
