(11 Apr 2019, 11:05 am)S813 FVK It's down as only running on 5th June between Newcastle Central Station and Stadium of Light, so presumably for an event rather than a permanent service

I wanna say it's for the Spice Girls gig but that's June 6th unless someone has made a boo-boo somewhere

Before you ask, no I'm not going

It looks like the 20/X20 will enter the town via winter gardens after Park Lane?

Could it not just be omitting the bus station altogether? and just serving Burdon Road/Vine Place and Fawcett Street. Just seems strange for that to be the Sunderland point rather than Park Lane.

Well the X6/X7 also start on Burdon Road/Vine Place.

The 20 will continue the same as it is now from south shields to durham, the X20 will start from the winter gardens, go into park lane then onto durham as it does now

Thanks, thought it would be something like that

With the 36 going, is the 35 getting increased in frequancy?

Not sure about that we will have to wait and see


RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2 - V514DFT - 11 Apr 2019

Where are the extra buses for the 1B gonna be sourced from

If the 18 is going to be axed, then you have some from there Wink

Could be the end of Crook too, sure i heard the X21/X46 will move back to Chester.

Wasn't the X46 listed as a service on those recent changes? There's been that many, I've lost track of them all. 
Seems strange the X46 is still going to be running am and pm if they're no longer going to be using Crook mind. 
Shared ops?

When I looked the other day, it seemed the X25 was stopping and being replaced by a shorter 25 (Chester - Langley Park).
Will the smaller PVR mean the spare drivers are utilised elsewhere?

No, X21 is staying at Crook (as is X46 & 86)

It needs more buses anyways as 1A will be during the day everyday too. A suggestion yesterday said possibly ex-red arrows as they're in for new buses. Plus 6069 is the backup now, i expect that to go into coaster but depending on the PVR increase will possibly need a extra Gemini/2


RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2 - big mac - 12 Apr 2019

So if the 1a is all day every day does that mean the 28a won't go to kibblesworth any more?

As I understand it it's the 1A that won't go to Kibblesworth anymore, running to Metrocentre instead to replace the 11.


RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2 - Rob44 - 12 Apr 2019

and the 28b the currently runs on evenings and Sunday from Chester le street to Birtley will extend to Newcastle via kibblesworth?


RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2 - L469 YVK - 12 Apr 2019

Only thing I could think for the 1 & 1A with the PVR going to be either 16 or 17 vehicles would the the Coaster getting B9s from the TVT when the new vehicles arrive and the B5LHs either go on a route such as the 58, Blaydon Racers or are moved away to another Go Ahead division.

6084 would remain at Riverside as a spare for the TTX so that would mean  6071-6083 + 3x or 4x of the best ex TTX batch examples getting allocated to the Coaster with the other 2x acting as spares for the Coaster & Cobalt Clipper.


RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2 - OrangeArrow49 - 12 Apr 2019

Just some questions to clarify:
11 only running Whitley Bay - Wallsend? The 1 will now serve the Metrocentre and continue to serve Gateshead - Whitley Bay? Thw X25 going to be replaced by the 25, but not serving Newcastle? What is going to replace the X25 in Newcastle? 42A no longer going to serve Kingston Park, terminating at Dinnington and not serving Benton Asda?
