Don't forget you now have the Optare MetroDecker running on the 309 / 310. Though I do see Omnidekkas on it, they usually appear around the evening peak.

Today the Cobalt Clipper had everything on, Presient, Omnidekka, MetroDecker and Cobalt Clipper branded and plain red Wright Geminis.

Not sure if it’s been noted that 6159 has entered service yet as the news hasn’t been updated for a while but here’s a photo of it at Durham today. Sorry about The Angel in the way as I was in a bit of a hurry to catch another bus

Is there any way to know which vehicle type will be allocated to a service or not?

Thanks.

Not really any way of knowing "in advance", so to speak, but you can check the Go North East app in real time to check which fleet numbers are allocated to which services (though you'd have to try and find them on a map).

Around 28 buses out tomorrow on Metro Replacement (Heworth - Regent Centre), for anyone out and about. A mixture of Volvo B5LH, B7TL and B9TL primarily, although a couple of StreetDecks will also be out, as well as one X10 B5TL.

Will the 26/27 also be allocated deckers tomorrow?

Thanks, Dan.

So I can use the Go North East app to find the services on a map in real time and that will tell me the fleet numbers?

Doubt it. Mmore needed for the 900 and it'll be more manic also considering newcastle play arsenal too.
And part will be covered between town and Heworth.

Speaking of that, 6071 had 901 on the destination today when only the 900 was due to operate. Driver error possibly?
