Route 58 | KV02USU/924 - Liberty Coaches: Dennis Trident/Alexander ALX400
The Party Bus by name only now was filling in on the 58, whilst the usual Iveco was covering up at Morpeth for the usual Optare Versa.
It's nice to see this back in service having been off the road for a lengthy period, although has apparently had quite an amount spent on a new gearbox, so seems to go through the gears quite smoothly.

During the days after Christmas, journeys on service X16 were running to a special Saturday timetable, which saw some journeys additionally operating up to Wooler. It did however seem that nobody was aware of this, and as such it was an empty bus all the way back to Morpeth from Wooler. It certainly seemed to suit the driver however, as the bus got a 90 minute layover in Wooler, and definitely ...

Finally, got to try out Northstar's new bus route, which is the 599 running between Sunderland, Jarrow & Hebburn, with a rather interesting route via Pallion, Castletown, Nissan & along the A19 to Jarrow. The driver was saying this is the best out of the two E200s, and actually has more power to it, allowing it to catch up time more easily. Although with these buses being quite good on fuel, ma...

The amount of work that was needed has clearly paid off, sounds fantastic and it's in brilliant nick!
Awesome video, thanks for letting me know that the start stop can be deactivated in the cab, I didnt know that
I had this today funny enough
@@NorthernTravelVids It was on my to-do-list for when it came back into service. Going to look at trying to get on the ex-Stanley President & the Yellow Omni if they make any appearances...
It’s NK61EWM
Lovely route. Really fast to Grangetown and Seaham, then heading down to the East Durham metropolis that is sunny Peterlee 😄
Wonderful route in Northumberland! Which equipment do you use, may I ask
Very smart, smooth and quiet but feel the seats could do with the blue stripe previously seen on MMCs.
It certainly was the longest Stagecoach route in Newcastle at the time. Now there's the whopping new 37 route; Whickham View - City Centre - Freeman Hospital - Four Lane Ends - Dudley - Cramlington!
I like this driver... because he stopped for the cat on the road, in Blakelaw. 😄
Alan Shearer's bus 😄 (He lives in Darras Hall).
A very irregular route! This has been going since the 70s! Although it was originally numbered just "79" (without the X) until the mid 90s. In the 80s it was operated by lovely Plaxton coaches, under the "Blue Bus Services" brand of Busways.
What a pocket rocket this is! in beautiful scenery! Hats off to the driver for being careful to not go over the umpteen potholes and cracks too harshly (due to the road being in poor state), while going through the empty back roads at speed. Was the reverse and double back due to a wrong turning?
Absolutely! Fantastic, scenic route!! No, the reversing is part of the route, quite similar to service 464, which also has sections of route where it has to reverse...
I used to get the 45 in the 80s (same route then) to visit my cousins in Wideopen (a few miles before the terminus in Dinnington). It was old Leyland Atlanteans then, with 5 speed 'crash' (clutchless) manual gearboxes. Happy days.
It's quite rare they have a double decker on the X82. It's usually an Enviro 300.
I think you got a bit mixed up with the description on this one. It wasn't 'Newcastle - Newcastle RVI' - the RVI is in the city centre and was the 3rd stop on the route (see the white sign on the right at 2:46). *EDIT* : Have now watched the full video. It's Newcastle (Haymarket) - Newcastle General Hospital, which is a different hospital to the RVI. The RVI is in the city centre, whereas the General Hospital is in the Fenham area of Newcastle. The service does call at the RVI (3rd stop, from Haymarket) but the destination is Newcastle General Hospital. After driving through the General Hospital grounds, it then returns by the same route to Newcastle Haymarket Bus Station.
Thanks for your comment. Will get that changed.
Just discovered you channel and it is mind-bogglingly good! All the Stagecoach (then Busways) routes of my childhood in Newcastle, like the 39/40, 11, X63, 1, etc, etc.... such a blast from the past seeing these routes after many years. I now live down south....... in Durham ha ha ha ha! I have just saved about 10+ hours of your videos in my 'Watch Later' list. Thanks so much! and....... I now live in Sherburn, Durham and I thought "what's the chances he's filmed my now local route - the 204A" - one of the most insignificant routes in the north east, with about 5 passengers per day. And here it is!!! 😄
Thanks for your positive feedback! I can however assure you that the 204 was busier during the times I recorded it, and from what I'm told by drivers who have drove the route it can be a busy little bus on quite a handful of trips...
@@centraltransportproductions - To be fair I only ever see it on it's off peak runs, down in Pittington. Interesting little route and that it's operated by Gateshead Taxis.
Great video. I live in Easington Village and have a car, but when I want to head into Newcastle for a Saturday afternoon session, I take the X1 all the way to the toon! Nee hassle and a nice route.
@@DavidR_192 You also have the X10 too from Peterlee, which goes direct along the A19...
Mitchell Centre
The subtitles say Caroline Pregnant BLAHAHAHAHAH
Not bad! Could do with more of these on other routes in Sunderland. Finally getting similar recognition to Newcastle - I'm liking the announcements!!
Nice to see something new for the Es, helping to encourage more bus usage...
could have done without the music

Still trying to work out who does the announcements for stagecoach lol but amazing video nonetheless
It's an automated text to speech AI voice
@@centraltransportproductions I always thought it was Angela Rippon
Beautifully scenic and relaxing route 😍, sounds beasty for a 13 year old too! 👍🏻
I hope these won’t be exclusively for the economics
Not all. The remaining examples will be utilised on other services in the City.
you must have just jumped on after i got off of 75. I got on at sunderland road it to seaburn, then after that got metro through to newcastle
Quite possibly, it was just before dusk. Yesterday was actually the busiest I had seen the Es during the winter, as these used to be the routes I used to get to college...
@ could have been a few routes after then as I left at about 2pm
❤ it!
I saw that train at pelaw earlier today
This sounds quite beasty
NOW SCRAPPED!!!
Yesterday, in Hertfordshire, I was on a bus with a driver learning the route. There are plenty of "landmarks" there but I would find it difficult to remember all the turns on this route.
It's most definitely easier to learn a route if you are familiar with the area.
In my truck driving years, I was around this neck of the woods quite often, and I will say, it's a peculiarly difficult area to learn. Nothing's quite where it seems to be, and especially at night it can be quite disorientating.
@@creepingjesus5106 Personally wouldn't like to be driving along a country road in the dark if I hadn't drove it before. Although this route touches close to the Scottish Borders & the roads get more rural the further North you go...
@@centraltransportproductions Yeah, being based in E Scotland, I was often over the main routes between Newcastle and Edinburgh, which are intimidating enough because you can't really relax even in good conditions; but I did do farm work that took me into plenty of places that I was sweating, thinking 'no way I'm getting in there!' and checking if I had phone signal to call for help! The funny thing about that whole area, even across to the west, is that it's a network, and eventually the mental map does click into place.
What a great Video! A Ex Stagecoach Yorkshire Dennis Dart I believe this one was based at the Eccelsfield Depot but im not 100% sure before its transfer here.
Yay I’ve been waiting for more border bus FRVs!
Brilliant photos mate
@@NorthernTravelVids Thank you 👍
ahaahaha thats where the wrights went!... there very bad motors
Great video, nice bus
Fabulous shots and photostream! Happy New Year to you and yours too!
Thanks for your comment, all the best for 2025 x
What a shame but were their physical notices put up letting passengers know? 1538 sounds a though either she having acceleration issues or the driver is really trying to put pedal to the metal.
Awesome Captures!
very nice
Nice video mate, these Allison Enviros sound lovely
❤ed it - you picked a decent weather with beautiful skies around at the time to go and film it!
The Stop/Start is to prevent wasting fuel and battery which is great however, it's caused a bit of debate amongst passengers but I have to admit I'm sitting on the fence. It's perfect for whenever the bus arrives at a timing point early and needs to remain until that specific time before moving off alternatively, it's a waste if the bus is only servicing stops for a few seconds.
thats true, I like it because it gives the bus character jerking as it starts up and then shutting down causing awkward silence for a moment
Nice video. I enjoyed the variation. Merry Christmas and a great 2025.
@@999skipper thank you, happy new year!
There aren’t any ZF E200 MMCs. These are Voith
Changed.
