At 11am on Thursday, October 30 in Market Square, Sunderland, two winged living statues – glistening in silver from head to toe and bearing bows and arrows - will herald the arrival of Go North East’s brand new Mercedes bus services – the Silver Arrows.
The brand new, sleek, sliver buses offer a taste of heaven for passengers travelling between Sunderland and Washington with their super-comfortable seats, tinted windows, air conditioning, powered ramps and low floors. On-board CCTV screens provide added safety and security and can even bring passengers the latest weather and sports updates.
The luxurious buses also have the highest standard Euro 5 engines, which are the cleanest engines available in Europe, reassuring even the most environmentally-aware passengers that their journey isn’t costing the earth.
Silver Arrows services 2A and 2C work together with Red Arrows service X2 – one of Go North East’s original Euro 5 Mercedes buses - providing a luxury bus every ten minutes between Sunderland, Hastings Hill and Washington.
Both the Red and Silver Arrows come with Go North East’s gold standard charter which promises passengers unrivalled quality in terms of reliability and punctuality and a hand-picked, dedicated team of staff to make sure the services operate to the highest standards.
Quality and affordability go hand in hand on the Red and Silver Arrows with great value fares between Washington and Newcastle or Washington and Sunderland of just £3 day return or £2.40 single. There’s also a great fare deal between Washington and Sunderland of just £10 for a whole week and a 2-day price-buster offer available on Go North East’s website, simplygo.com.
Commercial Director with Go North East, Martin Harris said, “Our Silver Arrows, together with our well-established Red Arrows service, bring all the quality and style associated with the Mercedes name. Together with our gold standard service, our passengers will enjoy first class, comfortable and enjoyable journeys without leaving a hole in their budget.”
