(28 Oct 2014, 6:55 pm)Tom A Pulsar was meant to be allocated, but it seems they are using a Ecocity from town services instead.

1410 was transferred as part of the PVR increase for the 12/12a to release an EcoCity to make up the fourth vehicle on the 21/X21.

3 branded - 4812-4. Means all 11 original examples can be used on 2/11/12/12a/21/X21 rather than restricting 4 to 21/X21.

It's another bad day for the 21/21A/X21 as the road in Wingate was closed with police and ambulance on the scene. Expect delays to these services and the 58 and X7.

Guessing this was in response to my post, as none of the others could refer to 57-reg vehicles, no it was 7528 if I recall correctly

I rode the 0831 21 and the 21 had a decent load on it, unfortunately due to an incident in Wingate it arrived in Peterlee Bus Station about 20 minutes late although thankfully because of the lengthy layover it left about 15 minutes late and arrived at Park Lane at around 1015 and left about 2 minutes late. The X21 had 10 passengers onboard with 2 connecting from the 21. The driver also accepted a Network One pass in Sunderland.

The 1115 X21 left with about 15 onboard.

Also just saw a 23 with few seats left entering PL and a busy 22 as well.

I had 1410 on the 1/5A yesterday and it drove absolutely faultless. Just needs a new paintjob and it'd be sorted!

ANE 1410, in Bishop Auckland on a working of the 1/5A.

Don't know as I'd got off well before then, however it sounded fine on the A1 when we were overtaking quite a lot of cars trying to make up time.

Well so much for 4 years or younger, 1422 is on the 22.

The X21 arriving in Park Lane at 1308 came in with a decent amount onboard and has left with about 10 passengers including myself.

There was some people from Arriva on the 1315 X21 asking some of the passengers what they thought of the service and the bus. They videoed some of the passengers with these questions, sadly they didn't ask me.
