306 Newcastle to Whitley Bay
53 Cramlington to North Shields
57A Cramlington to Whitley Bay
57 Ashington to Whitley Bay
X8 Blyth to Newcastle
X7 Blyth to Newcastle
52 Newcastle to Cramlington/Ashington
54 Newcastle to Whitley Bay
Just wondering as I have never seen a set allocation to these routes. I know a while ago the 52/54 were allocated to Volvo B10BLE Alexander ALX300 so was the 53 as well
The 306 had the Max Brand Decker's and VDL but that's all I know
52/3/4 interwork, should be Streetlites.
57/57A interwork, should be 4 of 1800/1801/2809/2812/2813. 1x evening 57A trip will be a Blyth vehicle, they also have runs on a Sunday.
X7/X8 should be Blyth MAX spec Geminis/Pulsars.
306 should be Jesmond MAX spec Pulsars/B7TLs.
Just bear in mind that currently capacity will be playing a part in allocation, certain duties which would usually cope fine with a single may demand a decker, which will throw the allocation.
