Northern (Arriva Rail North)
Only 1 service in and out of Newcastle is allocated a double set on a weekday and that is the 0743 Hexham to Middlesborough. Double set allocated even if one is a 156 (unless there is a unit shortage) as 1 unit goes empty from Middlesborough to Darlington and acts as spare cover at Darlington in case of disruption.
There is no reservations for The Valley that stopped ages ago but they try to keep themselves sat together.
