Vile machines. Enviro 200 or 300 would better suit all MAX Omnicity services

I think the Omnicity's are okay but I have to admit I'm not the biggest fan of them especially the amount of legroom between most of the seats and some of them do sound rough although they are 10 years old now and some have been truly battered especially the ones that went to Redcar/Whitby for 63 then later the X93 with the latter being a heavily demanding route so the that they are still running reasonably well is pretty good.

I'd like Pulsar's on the X66 myself.

I'd say Pulsars on some X66s will be the norm Wink

One of 1425-28 are on the sapphire service 7, surely there should be a sapphire branded pulsar on there

A generic liveried MAX omnicity made it onto the 8 this afternoon, I think it replaced 1461 At around 4-5 ish but I'm not 100%.

Yes
1461 on X1.
Blyth had a 308 Gemini on something that wasn't the 308 earlier, probably an X10/11, not 100% though, I saw it on it's way into Newcastle about 20 past 1. (worst rare and odd working post ever...)

The 6 is supposed to be a Cadet (or a Centro)

What time? The 1720 from Redcar Clock and the 1805 return from Lingdale to Redcar work off the 63 so are booked for either a Pulsar or a Temsa.

Probably a result of DaveyB's worst enemy... regulation.  Big Grin Don't know if anything was odd or rare on the 1/X21 as the road I live on was closed.
