It’s on 63s today

And in true Durham style failed to complete two whole days before being dragged off. Top job done here!
As an aside I understand 4715 has suffered terminal failure and as a result won’t see the road again. Another one down.

All depends which Depot can afford to send a replacement to Redcar. If it comes from down the road in Stockton. I would imagine it would be out of 1414, 1422, 1428, 1432 or 1450.

If Darlington have a spare to send it would be probs be out of 1409, 1417, 1431 or 1437. 

They tend to send older non Euro 6 Pulsars

There my personal guesses anyways

Wouldn't be surprised if 3052/3053 replace it instead. They seem to be on the 81 anyway, with whatever they're meant to be replacing being withdrawn when the Pulsar's turn up to see off the Temsa's.

It’ll just mean one of the reserve buses being kept ‘permanent’ on fleet anyway. Believe currently it’s 1433 & 1534. Neither have ever stopped being used of course!

Interesting?? 
Do we know what for

 Last time it was seen  it was missing a panel  at the back which was a few weeks ago  now but still there till this day

4706 is back in service well it was tracking yesterday and today

Rumour mill starting on 4715 being the next to get withdrawn.

When are the temsa due to be placed? Will it fall in line when thr envoras come. Surely they'll need a test on the x4 before going into thr route

I imagine the temsas will go once the pulsars arrive from the North West?

Anyone know what has happened to 1426 ?

Is that the one minus an engine at Redcar?

Seems to be back tracking again today on the X2/X3/64/64A Rota. Could be false though of course.

It's on the x4 today but isn't tracking

What happened to 4715 and has that now been withdrawn? I would imagine so. I know someone said it won't be seeing service again but unsure on whats true.

4720 & 4726 both finished too I’m informed.

One of the ex merside Pulsars supposedly now arrived at Redcar

Yep, 1398 in service on the 63 today. No doubt we will see it ragged about on the X4/X93 at some point soon. You know what Redcar are like with new vehicles xD

It’s not actually 1398 - it’s 4709 tracking as 1398 on Bus Times.

It wasn’t in service yesterday - it was Temsa 4709 with a machine change. Hopefully it will see service soon!

4726 dragged to Stockton I’m told

Should be for storage?  Question is when the other Pulsars start to arrive where will the temsa go as redcar depot isn't that big

Weetslade I'd imagine, no-one else will be wanting them.

Probably gone there because Redcar can't fit anymore withdrawn vehicles in the yard so shipped it to Stockton as they still see it has some parts they can take from it to keep others going for longer.
