Chester-le-Street depot is quite qwerky. It's an unusual shape, and you really don't get a feel for that from the outside of the depot.
The office side of the depot (the staircase is opposite the leading driver's office) for the likes of the depot manager etc are equally as strange. Lots of stairs, mind.
Riverside lacks all of the photos of the buses. All of the other sites seem to have photos. The ones in the Consett Travel Shop are pretty good. One of a Red Kite in the snow and another of a Great North Run Olympian line-up, from an unusual angle.
Indeed it is - it's why I bang on about it so much!
I used to draw diagrams of it etc., but could never manage to fit all the buses and coaches in. When I looked on Google Maps, I realised it stretched along the A167 and made some kind of triangular shape.
The personal offices are apparently quite small and oddly shaped. The large office at the front between the middle door and the maintenance section is where the scholars drivers work. They are PAs I gather.
You need to try and get some photos!
