RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - pbjd - 08 Dec 2019 (06 Dec 2019, 11:08 pm)Ds1197 Think the 27 got deckers and ran in 2s the last time a strike happened When they striked in 2010/2011, the 27 and 56 ran every 5 minutes, with Winlaton depot providing the extras on the 27. RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Ds1197 - 14 Dec 2019 Seen on a notice board stagecoach are putting extra buses on the X24/X34 do Sunderland depot have enough buses for that or will they have to loan from other areas Tyne and Wear Metro - TEN 6083 - 24 Dec 2019 Another strike has been confirmed which will happen on 6th & 7th January https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/rmt-boss-speaks-out-second-17470523 Sent from my iPhone XS using Tapatalk Tyne and Wear Metro - TEN 6083 - 28 Dec 2019 (24 Dec 2019, 5:46 pm)TEN 6083 Another strike has been confirmed which will happen on 6th & 7th January https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/metro-strikes-january-called-new-17482489 Strikes been called off Sent from my iPhone XS using Tapatalk RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Michael - 05 Jan 2020 Hopefully we find out this month, who has won the contract to build the new Metro trains Hoping its Hitachi RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - V514DFT - 08 Jan 2020 Whats the betting the temporary depot at Howdon will either be left to rot or pulled down after theyee finished with it RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Andreos1 - 14 Jan 2020 Might be worth a watch. Tyne and Wear Metro - cbma06 - 14 Jan 2020 (14 Jan 2020, 4:05 pm)Andreos1 Might be worth a watch. 4 episodes, 30 minutes each and probably be about 22 minutes long per episode with the adverts taking out, should of been more episodes [emoji2955] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Andreos1 - 15 Jan 2020 https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/whats-on/family-kids-news/free-metro-travel-children-weekends-17561142 Kids travel free on weekends. Tyne and Wear Metro - Adrian - 15 Jan 2020 Did anybody watch the first part of the documentary last night? You didnt miss much, if you didn't... All the focus was on one particular night - the Spice Girls gig at the dark place. Hopefully the other three episodes are more representative of the Metro system we see day in and day out, not just the fluffy bits that Huw Lewis wants us to see.

You didnt miss much, if you didn't...I did and it offered little to no real insight whatsoever, was 23 minutes of watching people travelling to/from the Spice Girls Next week will seemingly just be 23 minutes of angry Newcastle fans Was hopeful it would be more like the stuff Channel 5 have made like On the Yorkshire Buses which focused on EYMS and Paddington Station 24/7 but it's ITV so comes across as cheap filler tosh. RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - BusLoverMum - 16 Jan 2020 (15 Jan 2020, 9:17 pm)Adrian Did anybody watch the first part of the documentary last night? You didnt miss much, if you didn't...I just missed it but evidently didn't miss much. Did catch Kirsty and Phil in Cullercoats, tonight, though.

(and I do love a good murder mystery) I recently rewatched On the Yorkshire Buses as I realised the other night it's now available on Amazon Prime! Tyne and Wear Metro - cbma06 - 16 Jan 2020 Spice girls, Newcastle fans, great north run, can’t remember what the other episode is about but there be mostly be like the spice girls episode, nothing in depth of the metro system, would of been better if there were an hour long episodes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - V514DFT - 20 Jan 2020 Theres a Metrocar in an advert livery knocking about and it wasnt 4083,didnt manage to catch the unit number,anyone know which one it is? RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Coppercap40 - 20 Jan 2020 Think it is 4034, the advert is for whisky RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Ianthegoon - 28 Jan 2020 It's Stadler: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-tyne-51277602 RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - deanmachine - 28 Jan 2020 (28 Jan 2020, 11:24 am)Ianthegoon It's Stadler: In before everyone complaining it's not a Japanese manufacturer that merely assembles completely Japanese manufactured trains in a small factory in County Durham. RE: Tyne and Wear Metro - Andreos1 - 28 Jan 2020 (28 Jan 2020, 11:36 am)deanmachine In before everyone complaining it's not a Japanese manufacturer that merely assembles completely Japanese manufactured trains in a small factory in County Durham. The irony being, that the EU procurement legislation they followed (https://ec.europa.eu/info/policies/public-procurement/support-tools-public-buyers_en), is supposed to assist taxpayers within member states. Stadler are based in Switzerland (not in eu last time I checked) and there will be an impact on taxpayers within the areas affected by possible job losses at Hitachi and others who were involved in the tendering process and have sites within the EU... I wonder if the headline could be 'EU legislation means that work goes out of the EU and EU members and their states suffer as a result of EU legislation'?
