The two Darts are NOT for service - they are most likely at Stockton for storage (they are parked nose-in, normal for non-serviceable and disposal vehicles). Stockton is currently home to most of the reserve and dispsoal fleet in the North East (Flowers is full of ex-Newcastle MANs hence a further 7 sat out in the yard).

34605 is back out in service in Sunderland, Was on the 18s this morning
(09 Apr 2017, 9:04 pm)Kuyoyo It was not on the 13 - the first mention of it being in Stockton yard clearly states that the poster was going past the depot on a 13 and 34563 was parked in the yard.
(08 Apr 2017, 11:17 am)RBZ 5459 Two MANs could be replacement for the final two Kinetic, 22510/11, as word was they'd have up on them for the foreseeable. Not really chased that wibble up.
34565 landed at Carlisle last night....towed in from A69, crank shaft gone. Looks to be going back to NE for yet more repairs.
