Haha yeah, thanks for getting back to me though.

RE: Arriva North East - N391OTY - 02/05/2013 22:37
7462 still ignoring the call to move south, working Jesmond service 45 again today. Has its transfer been cancelled or just postponed, does anyone know ?
Temsa 4717 has now been joined by Solo 2826 at Smiles.
(25/04/2013 22:57)N391OTY Wrote: I have noted 7462 twice recently working for Jesmond, including today on service 45, so it seems to have been spared the journey south to Durham up to now.
Also, Temsa 4717 was still under repair at Smiles, Brunswick today, in the company of two Arriva Denmark open-top double deckers.
(14/04/2013 13:49)NK07 FZG Wrote: Since the DLA's from Jesmond have been in service for about a week now in Durham I have been looking out for an vehicles that may have been withdrawn since all the step-entrance deckers are used daily. From my findings I think all the Scania N113DRB / East Lancs E Types have gone as I haven't seen them since which is very rare unless they have left the fleet. I have seen all the Palatine II's in service as well except from R206 CKO and R207 CKO. Has anyone else seen any of the missing vehicles for shed light onto the vehicles at Durham that have been withdrawn?

More than likely due to there being a MAN service centre over on Bowesfield. Likelyhood to be on a road test.

Ex-London DAF's are entering service northwards, former DLA197 7467 is pictured on the X21.
RE: Arriva North East - Metroline1511 - 05/05/2013 20:20
Route X21 in a sense needs low-floor buses. I rode an Olympian on it last July.
It is a bit irritating that the Arrivabus website is still updating the east Cleveland map. It occurs to me that I can write a list of routes serving key centres like Middlesbrough, Guisborough, Loftus, Saltburn and Redcar, then look up frequencies and journey lengths on connecting routes.
I rode an EcoCity in Runcorn yesterday and liked the seating. This will alleviate part of the disappointment of their non-operation in Darlington on Sundays.

Apart from the 20/X20 and X15/X18, all Ashington depot services are now included in the new Northumbrian Low Floor Guarantee scheme.
The map will likely not be updated until the autumn when there are planned service changes in the East Cleveland area.

Fair enough Kuyoyo, I shall draw my own diagram of key routes in the area! My big day there will be May 18th so I shall do this next weekend.
My first port of call will be one of 4660-64, probably one of 4660-62 as I understand these are the only ones at SN, then pot luck from there.

Indeed, only 4660-2 at Stockton and 4664 at Durham. Likely they'll be on the 5 or 5a now the fault that was keeping them on the local stuff seems to have been solved.
