4649 has been towed away from Faverdale by Ian Bradley - at a guess it might be going for a new engine.

Saw it at 1325 on the 22, so will it come straight back to Middlesbrough as a 22?

Meanwhile we had 1451 on the 5's as it had to replace 1555 this morning at 1005. 1512 was already on in place of 1553.

Any particular reason for the ongoing allocation of a Streetlite to those services at Redcar? Seems strange that it's started all of a sudden, after a long run of not allocating them elsewhere. A trial, perhaps?

I'm suprised the correct allocations have lasted this long. This is Redcar we're talking about.

Oh, I missed out that the 64 board it's on today starts with a X3a.

Likewise the 63 1569 worked on Friday does the X4 duplicate.

Their manager has apparently suggested they don't want to leave one sitting in the yard - hence using it every day. It gets used on one of the extra Sapphire runs which are on 63 or 64 boards. Surprised they put one out today mind given DB delegates were around at Redcar...!

Must have been two Streetlites come off 5s today as there was 10 out from start of play but 1512 appeared mid morning... Saw 1552 coming back to depot at 1310ish

Thanks, both.

Kind of makes sense in a way, but potentially results in normal specification vehicles being allocated to the "Sapphire" services in the event of a vehicle changeover taking place when 1440 (NK10 CFA) is also allocated elsewhere. The downside to branded spare vehicles, I guess!
