VIDEO: Yutong E10 test ridden

YouTuber, Geoff Marshall, has published a video of his visit to Go North East to test ride the company’s new Yutong E10 electric single-deckers.

Geoff has almost 230,000 subscribers to his channel on the popular social media channel.

Branded ‘Voltra’, the nine buses run on the Go-Ahead-owned operation’s 53 and 54 routes around Newcastle and Gateshead.

As part of Geoff’s visit to the region, he also had a behind the scenes tour of Go North East’s Gateshead Riverside depot.

Martijn Gilbert, managing director at Go North East, said: “It was great to welcome Geoff to the north east.

“We’ve seen a great deal of him on social media before, with many of his videos receiving hundreds of thousands of views, so we were delighted to have him up here reviewing the region’s first fully-electric bus fleet and getting a look at what goes on here at Go North East.”
