Yesterday, but it will be today too if you saw it again this morning.
That bus performs a scholar in the Seaham area before starting work on 99s.

(31 Jan 2014, 4:20 pm)Adam Malarkey Think I have cracked the X1 Journey's where a Bus would disappear, well for one afternoon Journey anyway. For those who remember the conversation a few weeks back.
Depot Spare
15:00 - St Roberts Scholars to Springwell - Arrives at Springwell at 15:40ish
16:08 - 91 Team Valley to Newcastle - Arrives at Newcastle at 16:33
16:53 - X1A Newcastle to Picktree Village - Arrives 17:45ish
18:15 - 921 Rainton Bridge to Newcastle - Arrives 18:59
19:00 - X1 Newcastle to Easington Lane - Arrives 19:56(Driver Swap at WG at 19:29)
Does X1's for the Rest of the Evening
As for the Morning Journey's I think it would be
X1A Picktree to Newcastle
91 Newcastle to Team Valley
St Roberts Scholars
Light to Newcastle for the 11:10 921 to Rainton Bridge
I don't think at any point on other Journey's that an X1 Drops off Service during the Day, I think those Journey's run off a Scholars Run.
A Red Arrows also goes off to do a scholars 822 at St Josephs in Hebburn.
14.40 depart Washington depot.
14.50 arrive St Josephs bus bay 2.
15.05 depart as 822
15.26 Fellgate Metro.
15.28 Fellgate Estate, NIS.
Photo below of todays run passing Hebburn Baths at 15.15.

Must be 2 B9's left spare in Washington Depot during the Day, as I been past there on Numerous Occasions my Bike and there been a few sitting out back, Plus there is always Presidents on the X1, So this might also do something similar to what I have mentioned above of working X1A's/91's and 921's also, Thinking about it could do the 17:25 X1A from Newcastle, But there be quite a Bit Dead Mileage to from Fellgate to Team Valley to do 91's, But it is Possible.

There's a Red Arrows B9 sitting in Deptford. Not entirely sure why? 6017 has been covering today.

There is also a St Roberts scholars run from East Rainton (presumably runs off a 921) just after 8 in the morning.
Follows a similar route to the 968.
edit: It doesn't start at East Rainton after all... Here are the St Roberts scholars anyway if it helps http://strobertofnewminster.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ST-ROBERTS-OF-NEWMINSTER-RC-TIME-TABLE-2013-14.pdf

Maintenance I would assume, As I seen a Red Arrows B9 in Deptford Depot Last Year when I was walking past.

That would be the 07:35 921 from Newcastle which arrives at Rainton Bridge at 08:05.
So it must do what I said after the Mornings Scholars Run - Think we have cracked it for one Journey anyway
