RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 04 Sep 2015
KU02 YBP, same as KV02 URY was operating the 30 from 1000. Driver reports that there is two more unreported deckers, of the same type.
KU02 YBP carries Phoenix Coaches branding while KV02 URY carries Phoenix Taxis, Coaches and Buses branding.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 05 Sep 2015
KV02 USU is another ALX400, operating the 30 today. Carries Phoenix Taxis, Coaches and Buses branding.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - Rapidsnap - 05 Sep 2015
KV02URX is currently on the 17. Departed Churchill Street at 2035.

I wondered how long it would take for one of those to appear on the 17. Going to try a ride on one of the evening ones next weekend possibly.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - Rapidsnap - 05 Sep 2015
KS02URX is also fully branded up too.

Was that on the 17 too?
RE: Phoenix Coaches - Dan - 06 Sep 2015
That livery is certainly more appealing on a Solo...
RE: Phoenix Coaches - Rapidsnap - 06 Sep 2015
I meant KV, my head is all over the place atm.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 09 Sep 2015
OCZ8001 has been branded.

RE: Phoenix Coaches - NK53 TKT - 09 Sep 2015
Am I write in thinking the 333 bus is usually NJ11 EXJ and that when the service ends the bus runs the PVR on the 19 shared with an Arriva Nexus solo?

The 333 should be operated by Phoenix's NexusBus-branded Solo. The NexuBus Solo is usually VOR when the drivers chat, and how it's a heap of c**p just like the rest of the buses.
I was going to say whatever operated the 23 (Washington-Barley Mow) would operate the 19, but they lost that Nexus contract.
I'm sure the 333 runs late in the evening, plus it's likely to be low on fuel by the end of the day, so it probably runs light to Blyth like before?

Just last week NJ11 EXJ was on the 333 through Tynemouth, then I saw it in the evening passing me on 2824 as a 19

For some reason KX53 SCZ was parked in the layover at Ashington bus station earlier.

How odd, on the 30 maybe?
RE: Phoenix Coaches - Rapidsnap - 19 Sep 2015
Plenty of seats on the 17 tonight with KU02YBP being one of the 3 vehicles on there.
As for fuelling, I believe Phoenix use any Shell Petrol Station for their fuel. Certainly seen their vehicles filling up at Annitsford Shell and Shell in Byker.

This was at 14:45 so, it's missed out North Seaton on its last run if it was on the 30.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 25 Sep 2015
Driver training on the 30 today. Usual driver assisting trainee, quite erratic driving if you ask me...
