Unless I've missed another bus being branded there's always going to be at least one unbranded or wrongly branded bus on the X18 while the summer timetable is running . It now has a PVR of 6 but there are only 5 X18 branded buses...
Sapphire spare 1517 on the 43.
1911 on 7
1512 is out on 27a/27 so likely all 10 StreetLite are out on 5s today
4646 on X66
Refurbished Sapphire Enviro 400 on X18.

Left Newcastle sometime after 1pm.
1595 on X12, 1405 ex-Middlesbrough.
On the Mouth of the Tyne weekend in July, will Jesmond use some of their double deckers on the Sunday 306 / 308 or will Blyth position some of theirs to Jesmond for the Sunday daytime?

Do you think this one is bad as you say that for every other one.

Yes, it came out s***e
Not 100% certain (yet) but 1485 has just left Stockton light after a driver's break making it possibly one of the buses working the 17/27 this evening.
Not a rare working as such, but a rare sight. Moments after Durham's 1595 passed through Stockton on the 1620 from Newcastle, Stockton's 1559 turned up light from Brotton - the backshift leading driver having covered 5/5As was doing the Cunningham Drive 15s tonight. And as such, 1559 was the staff transport back to the depot (the other was 1486 - both vehicles are normally off 15s I understand)

Couldn't make out whether it was an X12 or X24.
