Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - June 2017

(25 Jun 2017, 5:26 pm)Dan wrote 4937 will be retained as a float vehicle for refurbishments - it is likely that some of the older Volvo B10BLE and Scania L94 presently used as float vehicles will be withdrawn now that younger vehicles are available. I believe there is interest from a buyer to preserve 4922.

5206 and 5207 will replace V-reg Volvo B7TL at Chester-le-Street - this relates to the conversion of the majority of boards on services 13/X25 from double-deck to single-deck earlier this year. Some boards remained as double-deck as they interworked with scholars services, whilst others remained as Volvo B7TL pending the availability of further Scania L94.


No, there has been a reduction of one spare vehicle at Chester-le-Street.

It is likely that there will be a further reduction of spare vehicles across the fleet, in line with the new financial year commencing, next month.

Thanks Dan, any chance of an update on the fleet lists?, one of Toonlink Citaro's is still down as "Black" and the MPD's at deptford are still down as in service.

Well when you get a chance.
Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.
