MX10 KNW is on the 58, today. For some reason it's been sat in Durham bus station for the past 20 minutes.

SB support vehicle just passed us Durham bound at Durham Gate. Am thinking a replacement vehicle might be more useful, though the 11:05 will be due by the time it gets there!

Answering your own comments now - first sign of cracking up

Only the first sign? That's quite reassuring

It's still there, with a couple of guys working on it. The expectant passengers have finally got off

Means that DBS has been down a stand for 4 hours, mind.

That'll be the detour they've been having to make on account of the knackered bridge.

MX55 WCZ on the 85.

Durham Park and Ride branded Solo SR YJ64 DXU made a very unusual appearance on service 33 today!

I wonder if MX10 KNW is still kaput.

What time was that? As I've had BUV on there all day!

Well, the ones for the 701 and 703 are in no way confusing. Oh no. :s

I am not sure whether to celebrate the Saturday service on "my route" 703, or mourn it loss as the new timetables (agree with above), certainly won't win any prizes for clear and concise viewing by the general public.

This will be to cover the new Thursday late night shopping, in Durham, which starts tomorrow. The leaflets only mentioned the PR1 running later from Belmont.

Unusually, there's been nothing but Solos on the 58 today and for most of yesterday and a couple on Monday, rather than just maybe one.

Wonder what gives with the E200s?

Well, there's usually one on the 700/701/702/703 round Chester-le-Street and there has often been one on the 113 along with YN04LWM, also saw one on the 879 the other morning meaning it was probably on the 110/111/112 the rest of the day.
