They are also using their Gemini 2 & one of the Bendy Buses, which looked like it was 11103...

Not being funny, but this really does call in to question the Nexus press statements re Sunderland Connect. I simply don't believe it .

Embarrassing that Nexus are letting them do any work for them.

Quite possible that awarding of Ferry / Metro Replacement contracts is completely seperate to procurement of secured bus services where as the Metro sorts out its own replacement contracts whilst the bus division of Nexus organises other bus contract such as secured services and school contracts.

So they just ditched the Silverstone Shuttles just to bring the Gemini 2 back up to do Metro Reps. 
Not suprising at all
