I'm told Stockton Prestige 4007 (S893ONL) went up in flames on the A174 near Lazenby this morning. Not sure how badly damaged it is but its unlikely it will be repaired.

Solo 2813 receiving attention at Park Lane from an engineer in a Fleet Support vehicle at present.
Don't think it's anything more serious than a water shortage or something similar though! Wink

Unusual / noteworthy workings today included:
Mini Dart 1798 on X66 for Darlington, joined by refurb Dart 1308
Stockton meanwhile had 27 branded Pulsar 1449 have a trip to Whitby on service 5.
Also on service 5, working for Whitby, was Prestige 4051, on loan from Durham. The other loan, MPD 1793 was again found on service 4.
Tonight, Stockton had Pulsar 1458 on the 627s which "replaced" Cadet 1915, 1458 having been on the 5 through the day. 627s work off 17A/B's so not usually see a Pulsar! Also, Durham were using an ALX400 bodied DAF on the 2215 X1 departure from Middlesbrough, having had Prestige 4068 on there during the day!
