7610 hasn't been right since it  returned from Durham  always seems to have issues  maybe next year new park and ride deckers should be on the cards then winter  there can either be used on the x93 or 62

or Redcar could just fix them...? There's 31 of the things at Blyth, at a depot which has engineering issues currently, and only 29/31 of them have been on the road in the past week.

This isn't a vehicle issue, especially how easy the P&R is.

Have you got the money to pay for the new park & ride buses like, no you haven’t so where’s the money coming from for the new buses then?

As Storx just pointed out to you, 29/31 of the Blyth vehicles are still running regularly at the moment. 

By the sounds of it, Redcar might find a "herd" more reliable than their vehicles too.
And why should Redcar be a asset black hole for the rest of the Arrive NE region? Absolutely pathetic.
Would be interesting to see if arriva do get some newer solos. Currently bee travel and high peak have some.

7609 was on park and ride duties in Whitby on Friday
Best thing Redcar did was withdrawn 7424.7425 26 with this heat we recently getting non of them would of been in sevice rember a few years back on the A171 7424 given in due to the heat

I don’t even care how much you got left, did you even read what I said, I said”have you got the money to buy the new buses” no you don’t, I didn’t even ask how much you got left

Been used on the egton show shuttles

Back at Redcar yesterday and used on an X3 board I believe. Potentially short term cover for 1556 which suffered a minor fire the other day.

If Minecraft had buses, they would be Temsas. Hopefully whatever it hit isn't as much of a mess.

Have any of these buses made it up north yet
