(17 Sep 2013, 8:00 pm)Daniel There was a Pulsar on 23s today. First time in a while I've seen anything bar a Solo on the 23!
The 24 of course gets a good ol' mish-mash of everything though!

I seen a pulsar on a few weeks back, but certainly rare for that to happen though. What's been on the 24, something other than pulsar and Omnicity.

Pulsars and Omnicitys only as of late - my comments were more so in regards to what the "allocation" was previously like.
Lowlanders were previously quite common too though, prior to Omnicitys moving from various depots over to Jesmond for the 685.

Lowlanders were previously quite common too though, prior to Omnicitys moving from various depots over to Jesmond for the 685.

Heading away from Peterlee at around 16:30 today was a Solo operating the 24. Seen a couple of late - must stand in for Omnicities and Pulsars when they're unavailable.

The information of a until date was on the X1, but its also on the 1 and 1B for the same date. unless connecteesvalley hasn't put the from 27/10/13 up yet on there website.

I know when there had the Ok1 timetable on the list it just said until date only the same as what it says about the X1/1/1B

Its on this website link :

http://www.connectteesvalley.com/bustimetables.asp

timetables on the right hand side.

Also has the new timetables for Arriva service 22 and 23 but wont have service 24 on as it doesn't go into the Hartlepool area.

Yes there are plans to replace them eventually next year. Durham's R-COO Darts are to move to Stockton with 1638 once they get replaced with 13xx Darts transferred from Darlington in a few months. The R-COO Darts at Stockton and Darlington are due to be replaced next year with more transfers and new stock.

No, but I did spot an un'identified Temsa NIS heading South at the back of the Team Valley yesterday morning.

Not sure why it was there or what it had been doing - presuming they are all still based on Teesside?

Best place for them - keep your thinnest seat cushioned buses for a nice long run from the Boro to Scarborough !
