Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2015

Due to the unique way how Ashington allocate, it's impossible to avoid a non-WiFi vehicle. What I assumed would happen since 1581 got branded that the 35 would have StreetLites and the 35A the DB250s. 

The ALX400s are great on the 35, if I'm on an Explorer or returning from the railway station I'll always wait for an ALX400. My mam prefers StreetLites, as they have separate spaces for pushchairs and wheelchairs.
I didn't like the T-FGN DAF ones because the seat types vary. I think the current ones 7466-7481 are much more comfortable however on the 35 all buses have wifi if correctly allocated with
a PVR consisting of: 1579,1580,1581,7468,7470 and 7472. The latter three have been retrofitted
