(04 Sep 2016, 8:34 pm)NK53 TKT Like the three buses at Byker (S4 STX, LK03 NJE and LK03 NJX)

LK03 NJE normally operates the 939 off I think a Gateshead scholars. What are the other two allocated to. Also what are the two buses at Albatross

The 701 doesn't start until the 17th September as the 700 is still operating down to Roker.

Ye, The info on the GNE timetable states the 700 summer timetable runs from 25 June to 16 September 2016. still 11 days before it changes.


No new timetable on the GNE site yet, i would imagine, it'll be on soon though, be like last year.... every 15 minutes, not going to Roker, no Sunday service.

Will this be for the 701 contract or a spare for services

Unless it has magic powers to grow into a bus with a minimum of 60 seats, it probably won't be heading over to Sunderland for the 701.

I imagine it will see most of its time on the 713 (id say its probably too big for the Cathedral Bus).

My school bus in south tyneside had 100+ people on at one point and it was a gne viking which has a capacity of around 85

But if they had an accident or police stopped surely the driver would get a fine and points as its dangerous and against the law?

Don't know as it was the only school bus that served a particular area. Kingsleys now provide it and have applied to nexus for a route variation which was accepted.
