6325 just did quite an impressive fuel (?) dump outside of The Canon on Low Fell.
Plenty of smoke and some very shrivelled vinyls on the engine cover.

6315 replaced 6362 in Eldon Square, made it as far as High Level Bridge before expiring, 6193 replaced it some 40mins late, unsure if there was a issue with 6193 at Peterlee then 6194 replaced it
8324 is now at Deptford on the 65/X20 today.
6376 is now at Riverside.
Had the pleasure of watching 5412 try to reverse off the stand at South Shields earlier. I think I died of old age by the time it had.

Streetlites use their retarder whilst in reverse for some reason, so if you've got an emissions light on they really struggle to go backwards, it's always fun.
8349 has had a white destination blind fitted, as it's original orange blind has been scrambled ever since it arrived from First...
6328 has been abandoned at the Eighton lodge roundabout stop heading southbound since about 1 this afternoon

Also I think it's only been doing that since around November 2025, as I've got photos of it before then and the blind was displaying normally.
