RE: Go North East
Most of my bus rides around Middlesbrough last weekend were Arriva, but I rode Gemini 6045 on route X10 from Middlesbrough to Peterlee.

Since my visit to the north east last July, I notice that route OK1 has now been extended to Middlesbrough. Maybe the through route from Bishop Auckland to Middlesbrough restores a former Arriva route X66 connection?

Also, I think route X7 Middlesbrough - Sunderland is new in recent months.

RE: Go North East
i very much doubt this but it may be true but when i was in Stockton yesterday i saw a plain red B10BLE ALX300 on a stagecoach service since it was too far down the high street to be a GNE bus, it looked a lot like 4993 (S590 KJF) and im just wondering if stagecoach on teeside has purchased it. I wasnt close enough to see the reg of it so if anybody else spots it please say, ill be very grateful. thanks.

Stagecoach's main ALX300 is MAN, not volvo b10ble's.
