(12 Jan 2018, 7:54 am)Stuartphin1639 I’ve seen it somewhere on here that the Pulsars bar 3 and 2 MAX Pulsars are moving to different depots, heard some are going to Stockton, some to Durham and the rest to the North but only time will tell if this actually happens

They are indeed 10.8m Streetlites and will seat 41 people. Interestingly the overall capacity is higher (70) than the 11.5m ones (67).
The Pulsars will indeed be cascaded to Stockton & Durham but some other interesting cascades will happen shortly after.

(20 Jan 2018, 4:39 pm)JoshP If you can, define 'interesting'. You have me very intrigued...
(14 Jan 2018, 5:08 pm)upt50k looks well but you would think Arriva would start by painting the solos and pulsars that are still running around in the original livery before any others

(21 Jan 2018, 1:25 am)Multi21 I believe I'm aware of this bit of news. However I'm going to make you work for it. Kelly Rowland made a song about the "interesting cascades". Get on YouTube and find that song title!Was on a tense back on Halloween Saturday from Middlesbrough to Whitby,and it was in desperate need of internal refurb .it was a y reg I think,the seats were like sitting on concrete, but it could shift.im a bit surprised it was on a long Scarborough run.it was on arrivals summer timetable extra ,which came off on the winter timetable,so I think it was a stand in.it should be ok if they clean and change the seating.
As far as I'm aware this cascade is just a rumor however it is a very strong one at the moment! So much so I believe there is a list of the registration plates kicking around the depot.
Double post I know but! The reason the Centros and Temsas are getting done first is because they were next in line for referb before the new livery was a concept. I dare say that had they decided when the cadets were made up to DDA compliancy they would had been the first buses in the new livery. It's just the way it's fell. I believe the Original Redcar Temsas will all get done 4703-4720 then the white front pulsars 1407,09,10,12-14,17-23,25-28

(22 Jan 2018, 8:53 pm)Ianthegoon The Y-EBR Lowlanders are still showing on the fleetlist, albeit with four of them listed as "for disposal". However, 7439 and 7444 are shown as at Blyth and Belmont respectively - do either of these survive, or is the fleet list a little behind?

I was on a few of the X21/22 MMCs over the Christmas break, and I noticed that if I rang the bell, it would ring 3-4 times from one press of the button. I've noticed similar things on the E200MMCs First have up here, is this a new introduction, or have these examples been due to a loose wire?
(22 Jan 2018, 9:56 pm)mb134 Sorry, my initial post was meant to be 7439. Believe it suffered major mechanical failure earlier this year, and was withdrawn as a result. I assumed 7444 withdrawn quite some time ago.
