Some questions regarding Arriva Teeside:
1: What buses are allocated to the peak X17s?
2: How long do the DAF Cadets have left in service?
3: What will replace the DAF Cadets?
I'm just curious as having travelled on 1920 on the 17 to Yarm, it felt like a trip back in time.
To be honest my suggestion would be to refurbish all standard Pulsars at Belmont to Sapphire put them on 22/23/24. Release 1595 - 1601 to Stockton and put them on 7s then the Pulsars off the 7 go onto the 17.

The Cadets have atleast 10 months on MOT
Cadet replacements have had a crazy amount of rumors Commanders, Pulsars and Tempos personally I think it will be pulsars.
Not sure the Streetlites will be at Stockton for much longer.so it's pointless sending the 6 down from Durham

(12 Aug 2018, 6:23 pm)S813 FVK Yet it was absolutely fine to run around in the completed Pride livery for around a month, while making up part of the 308's PVR? The branding just detracts from the cause the bus is intended to promote Arriva's support of. I'm biased, but I'm struggling to think of a reason why that's good, as you are appearing to suggest.
If they are that bothered about making sure 308 branding features on the entire PVR, they should have looked into painting one of the spare MAX Geminis and branding that Pride instead.
Aware that GNE's 8335 carries the Quaylink brand name, but now there are enough Versas to operate on the Q1/Q2 without it needing to form part of the main allocation on paper, I hope that it will be changed to look more like 5292 in the future.

Thought the 7s had to have NSAs!

Darlington council doing what they do best as messing with the A167 between north road and Aycliffe, causing everything to be anywhere between 15-35 minutes late
4520 is now a training bus
