B10BLE 4515 has been working the full X18s today. As far as I am aware, it should have a tacho, but not sure it has one?

4515 is indeed tacho-fitted, as are 4501/13 at Ashington and 4522 at Jesmond.

Prestige 4068 is on 6s today. Left Bishop Auckland going towards Durham about 10 minutes ago.

Not sure if it's rare or not, but the allocation for the 6 every time I've been to Bishop lately is Pulsar.

Normal, the 6 seems to be Durham's 'anything we've got' route with Prestiges, Tridents, DAF ALX400s and Lowlander as well as Pulsars.

Bus firm finally pulls out the stops:

A transport company is finally coming good with its promise to reinstate part of a bus route.



Arriva North East had caused confusion after informing Durham County Council it would be returning Helford Road and Southway, in Peterlee, to the 22 Durham-Hartlepool bus route after it was cut in March.

Durham County Councillor for Peterlee’s Passfield ward, Joan Maslin had in turn told residents the news, much to the delight of elderly people, who faced having to walk all the way to Our Lady of the Rosary Church to catch the bus.

But Arriva said this was not the case, as timings of the new route were vital to the reliability of the service.

But now Coun Maslin, a Durham Independent Group representative, said Arriva’s area managing director Nick Knox has emailed her direct to confirm the stops will be restored.

In an email to her, Mr Knox admitted there is “further work to complete on the schedule”, but said it is Arriva’s intention to re-start the service on October 27.

Coun Maslin said: “I’m really pleased and the residents are thrilled to pieces.

“We didn’t think we were getting the service back.

“If the service is back before the winter then that’s really good.”

Mr Knox said: “Following extensive monitoring and timing trials we are pleased that we have been able to find a workable solution. We always take on board passenger feedback and wherever we can we try to accommodate residents’ needs.

“We are delighted that we’ve been able to resolve this and hope customers make the most of the service.”

Its about time that Arriva service 22 will be going along my street again.

Transfer for Yorkshire - not sure yet which depot is getting it. Also requires its designation screen replacing before entering service - it currently has Brightech screens which will need replacing with a Hanover one.

Arrived at Jesmond yesterday morning - expect there'll be another one due to replace Spectras 7482/3
There's a Gemini and E400 on Metro replacement again today.

Looks like a change to the normal allocations for the X24. Both runs today have been with Optare Solo 2804.
