Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - June 2016

Didn't realise that the proper MAX ones had USB ports.

7416, mechanically, seems shot. An alarm went off just after I got on at Morpeth, while the bus was still stationary, after which I overhead that the driver had problems with starting it at Newcastle. 

When stationary, it starts shaking like mad every couple of seconds. It also took forever to get up to any sort of speed on the A1 after Felton. Not great impressions.
