The Arriva operated contracts are finishing on May 5th, while some of it will be operated commercially, some will not be replaced. I'm not sure of the arrangements for Stagecoach but would expect some form of change to happen!

610/611 are not changing.

They have been saved the cull by section 106 money from a new housing development in Stainton!

When the tridents come are they going to be fitted with led displays on them?

As far as I know, I beleive they are fitted with the older Flip Dot screes, so it's unlikely they'll be fitted with LED screens.

Further details can now be confirmed.

10000 entered service today on the 38, and will operate the same duty every day of the week for the next few weeks before it moves onto another route after which the same duty will be covered by one of the 60-reg Enviro400s to test the difference betwee Euro5 and Euro6 fuel consumption. It will be here for between 6 months and a year.

10000 in service.
