Go North East - State of the Fleet

Go North East - State of the Fleet

RE: Go North East - State of the Fleet
The older Streetlites (ex Drifter and the shorter Saltwell Park examples) both had a higher limited speed as well (58 rather than the usual 50). I would be interested to know how much more life GNE think they can get out of these (and how long will they actually last)?

The Mercedes engined ones, I found, tended to have more power and coped better on hills. The Mercedes ones also seemed to have smoother gear changes unlike some of the Cummins ones which randomly had whiplash inducing gear changes.

The only other type that I've driven with bad rattling and vibration when idling were the Arriva Durham E200s.

Ive been wanting to ask a question for ages but didn't really know which chanel/category to put it in so its kinda to do with fleet !!!!! Since the last lot of changes yo 20 20A,X20 etc...
Every Saturday there is a decker on the 2339 from Park Lane to West Rainton. Mos6ly always one of the blue X lines. Couple of times a volco. I know decker make up part of the VOR now but does anyone know why this board specifically in a Saturday?

Looking at it's board earlier in the day I'd guess it's football related.

It does the 17:07 to Durham which will be easily catchable for fans, the one after seems to be always deckers aswell.

Possibly but even when no football. Always on that one and always the only one that seems to stay out all night most of the time
