RE: Compass Community Transport - Dan - 29 Nov 2013
(29 Nov 2013, 5:52 pm)aureolin I dread to think what they had on the 73 then.
They have enough 'proper buses' to cover the amount of vehicles they require, so I'm guessing the 73 would have had a Cadet still but another may have had a Solo instead.
It still baffles me that they use vans when they have enough buses..!
RE: Compass Community Transport - Andreos1 - 29 Nov 2013
There was a Cadet on the 79 on Mon and Tues heading into Burnside Estate about 19.30 ish.
Not sure if the two interwork/combine at any point during the day.
RE: Compass Community Transport - Michael - 06 Jan 2014

RE: Compass Community Transport - Michael - 06 Jan 2014
Bus driver is really happy, bus is a tad rough but its being a quick ride!

Bus crashes through garden wall in Sunderland street
AN out-of-control minibus ploughed through a garden wall as terrified passengers clung to their seats.
Householder Billy Bryce today told how he was woken by a huge bang as the bus smashed into his Mercedes car before destroying his front garden wall.

Think there might be 2, although there could of been a Vehicle swap at some point this Afternoon.
RE: Compass Community Transport - Malarkey - 27 Mar 2014

Y32HBT was recently involved in a RTA, but is currently undergoing repairs by DiagTest.
RE: Compass Community Transport - Andreos1 - 20 May 2014
The Solo operating the 79 today had a few issues with its blind.
It had come loose and was slowly falling face down on itself.

Interesting. Providing another registration isn't submitted, does this mean that the only work Compass will have is services 37 and 8X?

Yeah it is. I guess so, as I don't think they'd cancel it and re-register it?
