(11 Oct 2018, 7:01 pm)S830OFT wrote With Sunderland receiving older vehicles, it looks like reliability could go down hill especially when the 08 plate MANs have a reputation for unreliability on service 1 at Hartlepool. Hopefully they are placed on less demanding routes like the 8 and 18 as they will not be good for reliability on service 4.
I don't think we will have an 18 soon, numbers are still very low, can't see it making a profit, even with it hourly.
With no new orders for the NE this year, what cascades are we likely to receive?
