North East Buses

According to the Bus Times website 22013 and 22346 were tracked in Stockton depot around lunchtime today, if its true could they just be there for storage prior to disposal?

Sprinters 44005 and 44006 are due to land from East division for the Tees Valley DRT, according to their fleet movements this period. 44015 and 44017 from Fife are under service prep.

22019/62-4 the only ALXs still in service at Stockton.

So I do - ta!

It's reserve on paper now for Stockton, don't believe it has been out since it's very brief spell at Slatyford two weeks ago mind.

Amended initial post.

24107 has arrived at Slatyford this afternoon from Stockton, 22510 gone the other way for storage.

Subject to when further 24xxx land, 22511 clings on at Slatyford with 22512 at Walkergate (although looks to be finished now) pending transfer of 22428.

Does the 30 go to Boldon cinema through the day now? I've seen it a couple of times this afternoon going that way, assuming it's driver error.

Quite possibly another 24xxx heading north today - was one still parked in the yard at half 8. 26290 is now in service, indeed quite possibly the majority of the MMCs might be as there didn't seem to be any parked in the yard then.

26291 seen out today.

Blue logo should go on the white of the front panel, why they've done that is beyond me....
