Positive:
Good turnout of vehicles. Leyland National 4855 was my favourite.
Good weather.
Interesting variety of vehicles on the shuttle bus.
Visited lots of non-psv operators nearby.
Good stands got some great historic bus timetables
Negative:
Lack of a brochure and published timetable for the event.
No officials around and no publicity at North Road Durham. Wouldn't have known the event was on if i just been a casual visitor to the city.
Vehicle parking could have been better.
What made me laugh:
Cling ons from the Haymarket corner standing on the corner at the rally.
Verdict:
An OK day but organisation and planning can be improved. Will try Whitley Bay next month.

4855 or the Leyland Nationals. We had both Nationals 4708 and 4710 there along with Volvo B10BLE 4855. 4855 did one run on the shuttle but I would have done more if people had asked.
