Have they finally realised it is a truly horrific vehicle like?

Was over 10 late when I saw it on the 35, I was on an 'on time' 7478 at the time.

1474 on the 22.

Have seen a lot more of the streetlites, today, though one of them spent at least 2 hours parked up in Durham bus station, at lunchtime.

the reason for it being kept local is because it has just had some attention done to its engine and it probably be best to break it into use gently. probably next week it should be back on the x21/x22

1476 on 22

1912 on 7, 2829 been replaced by 1449

1911 is on Crew Bus

4659 should be duping either an X21 or X22 shortly for a Newcastle match.

Bit of the wright badge missing there. Really needs to get it back - looks awful without it.

Been missing a while. Big'un says the middle bit was missing for a while, too. When you get close up (walked right past it on the school run, a couple of days ago), there's no glue marks or anything, so it can't have been fitted very securely.

7519 and a Lowlander on X12
