MAX 1415 and Sapphire 1517 on service 6.
All seven X93s through Teesside double deckers yesterday (although one got changed for a Temsa at 8pm)! And the other could well have been 7402. 7487 also out on 64/64A.

(04 Jun 2015, 8:09 pm)Dan Is that branding still on the Pulsars?
I never seem to see it when I'm in Durham, although that might be because the branding only features (or possibly featured) on one side of the bus...

(04 Jun 2015, 8:10 pm)Jimmi Yes it still has 'A Captain's Tale' branded although like you say it only has the branding on the drivers side and an advert frame on the other side, no idea why!

(04 Jun 2015, 8:16 pm)Dan Thanks for clarifying.
I think it was said originally that it was related to an interworking pattern - they didn't gain full branding as service 6 interworks (or again, possibly interworkED) with another service.
Always thought that reasoning was baffling - why bother branding the service at all? If it was that important to brand the service, why not put the branding on both sides for both services?
Of course, cheaper to only pay for vinyls for one side of a bus!

(04 Jun 2015, 8:17 pm)Kuyoyo I understand they were meant to be removing the advert frames to apply the branding to the nearside but of course now it's getting the Sapphire treatment, there's no need After all, this is Durham we're discussing - only been 2 weeks since the 22/24 was upgraded and as yet the sum total of cascades out is at 5 and all to Stockton.
