A consequence of local DVLA offices closing is that buses ares no longer registered in their local district. These vehicles have received Scottish SN marks but a nice touch is that 36975 has been registered SN63 VVK.
VVK is an old north east registration mark and it's nice to see it on the streets of Sunderland.
The arrival of these new buses is that older Dennis Darts have been cascaded elsewhere in the north east fleet and as a result have appeared on the streets of Newcastle.
