Martijn and Dan will do a live update at 5pm on Tuesday 14th April on Northern Group Enthusiasts Club facebook page.

Which buses still have EconoSpeed still installed?

Anyone help?

I came across this photo of coach A716 ABB as United 1037.

Ive only ever known it as Northern 7016 and VFM/Go Ahead Northern 5116.  I can't ever recollect it being referred to as ex United in any Fleet lists or handbooks. 

Can anyone tell me when did this and the remainder of the batch 717-720 pass from United to Northern and the reason why?

Solo on the X4 today.

Few fleet changes outside the Corona Situation
11300/503 back from Highlands

Does the 42/42A have NSAs when a bus with NSAs is allocated?

I presume the bus services have been suspended? The council website gives details of an various things affected by the virus but doesn't mention the bus services.
