Isn't one of the evening runs booked to use a MAX X1 StreetLite?

Yup and that's the one, runs off a X1 board and finishes at crook at 21:05

How aren't they rare

7406 is MAX X93 branded and appeared on P2

1562 is SAPPHIRE x3/x4 branded and appeared on P1,

In my eyes both of them are rare

You were on about 7487 on x93s

I suppose it all boils down to why 7487 was on the X93. It could be because of the Redcar summer boards (which in that case, doesn't make it rare) or it could have been covering for 7406 which, as already mentioned, was on P2s.

Were 7416 and 1808 both out on the Redcar X93s today? Should help answer the question about its rarity.

Yeah 7416 was my ride to Scarborough at 13:06 and 1808 was the 12:06 from Whitby as it was 2 buses I front of 7416

Like that'll help with Arriva odd workings?? 

Tom and Kuyoyo have posted Arriva allocation lists in the past.

The 1206 from Whitby is the Whitby extra board. As 7487 is working the 0950 from Middlesbrough today, that to me suggests 1808 is up at Whitby at present .

Both of these are indeed "rare". The question has to be why though? 7406 is dedicated MAX for the X93 and should be running there as opposed to 7487. 1562 is dedicated SAPPHIRE and should be working on those boards. Heaven only knows what was on the X4/4? Probably 1102 or a Temsa!

1440 was the spare that was on the x4/4

He didn't say they were, he was explaining where the Park and Ride buses may or may not be.
7489 was parked in redcar depot

I don't think my photos are good, too saturated. Hence why I don't upload lots.
MODS WILL YOU PLEASE SORT THIS OUT !!!!

This is a public forum for those of us interested in Arriva. It's more like a playground with constant childishness and bickering and individuals constantly trying to be one up.

You go and do a better job then - It's the same with all companies, independents and large companies such as Go North East and Stagecoach.

You don't know if there are any restrictions or problems with certain vehicles.

I'm not trying to add too the fire, just point out a few obvious points...

I didn't think Arriva's Northumbria section had anything to do with you?

I do agree with Davie here- from when they branded up the ALX300s for the 52/53 they've never been off the 43! Surely that isn't normal.

Same with Blyths allocations you say it's too keep them on time, but if so what's the point in branding them? May as well just have a generic brand for the X10, X11 etc.

I have never said its to keep them on time, so I don't really know how to answer that one.

In my opinion, a generic MAX brand would be better for ALL services.

I know I wasn't saying it was you just people have said that before - would be far better to have a generic brand.

IMO, the X7-X11 (And possibly the 308) should just have "Max Quick Links into Newcastle" on the Vehicle's they use.
