Hopefully the X10 get's sorted this year with either some new / newer vehicles.....or if the schdeduling / planning teams responsible can reduce the number of low heights needed on the X30/X70 services (with suitable spares remaining), some more Enviros to use in rotation!

Needs something new (again) 

I image the 4 Enviros currently on there will end up at Hownsgill once they are replaced to join the rest of the batch.

Passed an X10 enviro on the 21 earlier.

8324 on the 309 today, could of used an open topper! But no, lets stick a versa on.

Bizarre considering there are deckers on the 341

Ah wait - 6114 and 6115 are on the Metro Replacements - lets piss off our regular customers for the money strikes again

6355 trotting around on the S2 - the 2 passengers that use it will be thrilled

5447 has creeped onto the 307

6193 is on the X10 tonight, following 2 breakdowns of Enviro 400 MMC's today on there. 6193 is a very difficult vehicle to get a ride on, almost all the time it seems to only come out evenings. Never been on it, wonder how it does compared to a newer B9 on there.

6954 has also reappeared at Riverside despite being earmarked for withdrawal.

Looks like they're moving things about as 6304 is tracking on the 96 this evening.

8314 from Percy Main has gone over as well

I wonder if 6301-6314 are heading to Riverside gradually, with the Angel Streetdecks being refurbed and sent the other way? Will see if this is the case when 6315 enters service and at what depot

Maybe not, 6315 is back in service today on the X10

Go North East "our X66 is fully electric and new buses are now allocated to the route"

Tuesday 2nd of June "you sure about that"

6160/5531

Where are the X66 buses you may ask. One off the road and two on the 49/49A

Why bother promoting a bus route being fully electric then fail to allocate it

Venture 645 working at Hexham today. 

6961 also at Hexham/Riverside still on the 10's 

6950 has been officially withdrawn (appeared on fleet list but hadn't been in service recently, althought 6954 is working from Riverside)
