I know this isn’t Stagecoach related but does anyone know what double decker bus has crashed with 2 HGVS on the A1 near gosforth?

Can't confirm 100% but looking through all the vehicles with Arriva on BusTimes, seems like it might be 7549 on the X30, it's stopped tracking at 16:10 where the incident happened. Bar a single, there doesn't seem to be anything else trapped in it.

Yes that’s what I was thinking. We will probably find out later

100% 7549 btw, there's a photo on Facebook now by that kid who likes going to things that happens (someone sent me it so can't link)

Damage looks quite minor really, all considering.

Im guessing 27731 can’t go into city Center as it has moved to Slatyford for 6/7

Yeah exactly that, having problems with the clean air zone as well so moved over. I’d have thought 27723 would have gone back to Walkergate as it’s no longer being fined but still at Slatyford.
