1790 is working for Blyth, on the 2, this morning

That's what I mean - the 20 is to be re numbered X20.

What's wrong with it?
the reason why 1790 was on the 2 was one of their own mpd was out of use as it had broken down. sorry i dont know which one though

Timing - every 2 hours apparently. I'd be pissed off if it was...

One of the reasons I rarely go out on a Sunday, unless I can get a lift through Washington!

Is that not just for the Cresswell extensions?

I am told it's on loan along with 7467 from Jesmond and 1466/76 from Durham
well that might be the case just when i was waiting for the bus one of the mechanics said that blyth are using one of ashingtons plaxton pointers because on of blyth plaxton pointers are broken and i only saw 1790 working at blyth no others and you are probably right as well
i have noticed that the 35/35A is using double decker even know it doesnt get full. if there is a different reason i am sorry,but could they send 4 alx400 DLA buses up to belmont in exchange for 4 pulsars and those pulsars could be branded for the 35/35A and then they have a set allocation for the 35

It's every hour - with a PVR of 2.

I believe deckers are required due to the weekday interworking with the 100 in Morpeth.
Has anyone seen 1571 today?

No, Why?

For a photo, I'm guessing!

Was just a little puzzled why he was asking for a particular Redcar Sapphire StreetLite.

One of the ones I need for photo, and the last one the lad I'm out with needs for haulage.

They are and 1907 should also be there. Not sure why they're being kept hold of

New Sapphire ADL Enviro400 7536 making the same "hoover" noise associated with elderly Volvo B7TLs (a hell of a lot louder than GNE's 6021 which left Durham a few minutes after!)

But 7490 is a hell of a lot louder..!
Second day in a row I have been blessed with being within a few yards of that one and it deafening me...

Good old VLWs! Them E400s have some canny fans on them too, but don't use them constantly unlike the B7s!
7509's front destination display is so dim, it is barely legible...
The destinations on all of the 57-reg series examples are still flashing too.

Majority of the 57-reg batch have dim destinations, as does 7518, could barely read that the other day, had to squint...
Think the NSA's are still broken on the 57-reg ones as well, as I was on 7504 yesterday and they weren't on, however they were working on 7522 last night

Any particular reason for the route number being displayed on the right of the rear display on the 57-reg batch and left on the new batch of Sapphires?
Obviously the route number on the left is what is more common on 128x17 rear displays...

New Sapphire vehicles are delivered with 128x17 screens. Refurbishments get the 144x19 (size used at the front) screen, so presumably linked up to the front screen. The EcoCitys are the same (apart from some are set up to show the 128x17 displays)
