Nothing of note today apart from the argument in Boro with two folks trying to get a four wheel walker onto a crowded 4659. Buggy in the disabled space, others with assorted trolleys on the front seats. Give the Stockton lad driving a mention for his patience (1115 5 ex MBS)

And isn't that just such good news? Anything to "solve" a problem.

Didn't think it was a whinge Richard but with hindsight I'm probably a little hard on those down at Redcar. I'll be more pro-active in future
One must assume that once the Streetlites arrive at Redcar to work the X3/X4 duties then the present Pulsars will be used elsewhere and then the likes of 1743 etc can finally be withdrawn? What will happen then to the Ommis based there? I've read that these are due to be 're-furbished, just hope we ain't gonna lose them?

(01 May 2014, 6:04 pm)tyresmoke As is 1651.
Edit: Not to mention they're still hanging on to 2 Enviro 400s that they don't need, and should have entered refurbishment weeks ago!
So Scott, that looks like the makings of a decent fleet down there? A shame about the Ommis mind but I have friends in Darlo so guess I'll see them on the X66 unless you know something about that?

(01 May 2014, 9:21 pm)tyresmoke Yeah I'm not sure whether they'll be branded or just generic Max branding and common user fleet between X66 and X26/X27. Obviously they'll require 12 Omnicities to work this (5 & 6 & 1 spare) - 4643-51 and 4655/6/7 will be refurbished for this. That obviously leaves the 4 Stockton based Scanias - I think these will just get a standard refurbishment, along with 4660-4 for the 685.
