Just got on 36089 and it smells nice, think it might be the cleaner they use though.

Does anybody know whether a North West Explorer can be purchased on the 685 at the Newcastle end?

They can (on both Arriva and Stagecoach) - but make sure you make it crystal clear with the driver that you're wanting a one for the North West rather than the North East.

19195 is back again after its accident in Walker the other week. I saw it on the 22 about 15 minutes ago

Clearly nothing to report on 

The new early 12s started this morning in Middlesbrough and were operated by 27174 so look out for this later!... Guess it's on a 36/37/38 board

Traffic lights at Seaburn have been removed. The e2 im on waited for his timing point at Grey Horse with his paper.

All of the branded South Shields ADL E300s that I have seen today now have two "Faces" applied to the back window. However, no faces have been applied to the windows on the sides yet (below the fleet number).

Wakergate Enviro 400 19437 has lost its 1 branding

The school that now owns Volvo Olympian 16714 (N714 LTN) is Westoe Crown Primary School.

South Shields pupils are hitching a ride to literacy = Shields Gazette

Damn just beat me to report the faces lol

My school could do with an Olympian, mind...beats the Ford Transit used for netball and football matches, group outings to the cinema, etc, imagine how nice that would be if it were an Olympian!

Used to be an LDV Convoy for me! We did have a Ford which was a T-reg iirc, and that was bloody awful as well. Imagine going from Sunderland to Carlisle in one!

My school had two old Ford Transit's which were not very pleasant, better than the red LDV Convoy they had which I'm surprised was road legal, our science teacher once told us there was smoke coming through the bus on one trip.

Sunderland's service 4 was running as a 3 but 1 has being took out of service at Joplings but 2 are still running together
