(12 May 2017, 4:55 pm)ENEB I don't understand why it's not on the 16 then. As it's been YJ05JWN for the last 3 days now.My theory is, it developed a issue on Wednesday as apparently it was out at the beginning of Wednesday but YJ05JWN was on by the evening and it wouldn't surprise me if they are just going to keep it on there until tomorrow afternoon now when the bus goes back to the depot tomorrow night. To get the pink bus back onto the 16, you would have to have to send that to Darlington plus then send the other bus (YJ05JWN) back to West Cornforth and of course you would have to get a driver to drive these buses and then there's the extra costs in fuel as well.

Aye, it's easy to swap it out at Coxhoe and get it back to the depot if it needs attention, when it's on the 58.

It was a warm day and I know that YJ55YGL has problems with the heat. So it looks like the pink one has been took back to the depot and then YJ05JWN has been rushed back to Darlington. Well I suppose YJ55YGL is a bit different from the rest of the Cummins solos as an Engineer said that it's original Engine was Slow when it had finished the park+ Ride and was fitted with a Cummins Engine 5.9Litre still but it being from a Bin Lorrie Truck.

Aye the 5.9L ISBe was offered in earlier DAF LF/CF Models, Before being replaced with the 6.7L at Euro 5, They are rated up to 220bhp In the Lorry's.

YJ55YGL Disappeared this afternoon I saw it on Abbey road just sat at the side of the road around 3pm and then never did the rest of its services. Most likely overheating as usual. Any kind of heat and it just cuts out at stops.

New buses usually come with each new contract, so 2019 if that trend is to continue which i think is likely.
