GNE Update.

Been out and about today and here is some of the odd allocations I caught, including the damn right bazaar regarding the X3.

Lets start with X3, normally as we all know the X3 uses 4 Wright Renowns on a Daily Basis, well not today, not even 1 appeared on the X3, instead there was 4 East Lancs Vykings, 2 plain Northern and Other 2 Vodafone/Northern, Imagine the odds of this happening again. Anyways I caught 3 of the 4 and they were.

I would of got the Fourth but I couldn't be bothered waiting a further 15 mins at Heworth, Baring in mind the other 3 were running aound 5 to 10 minutes late.

Other Odd Allocations Included.

4944 on the 28/28A - I did get a photo but the destination blind was all blurred so it won't be uploaded, normally this is on the 50 everyday like the Renowns on the X3, just not today.

I was keep lookout for this in Gateshead to see what service it's on, Just wish GNE would send it to another Depot like they said they were going to do if I remember correctly.

I also finally after Months of trying got a photo of 8266 with the S1 Blind working. I got a photo in the Interchange and at Asda.

Also today I pasted Gateshead Depot in which from what I could see 2 Wright Fusions branded up for the Great Park and Ride X40, Didn't get any photos as I was unwilling to walk accross a load of Binbags someone dumped to get to a point of where I could visibly get a photo. Instead i'm going to wait and get photos at various points of the route including Newcastle City Centre and Newcastle Great Park.

And finally the X66 was pretty much normal workings wise with 3 of the 4 Citaro G's operating the Service with the other in Gateshead Depot, There was Northern Renown on also.
