Anyone requiring photos (or rides) of the remaining Olympians at Stockton depot, I suggest you make the trip very shortly - Hull have now received a fifth E400 from Manchester (at last some might say) with their remaining 5 due by the end of next week, which means 17028-31/3/4 should be joining 17025-7/32 at Stockton in the next few weeks.

Did they end up at Sunderland straight away before or go to Teesside and then Sunderland? I really can't remember.

A little late in posting, but I managed to get a hold of a "limited edition" Sunderland International Airshow 2013 ticket earlier this week.
See attachment for a Concessionary Single purchased on 22074, a vehicle which was being utilised on airshow shuttles on 27/07/13.
I unfortunately didn't get one - had my Nexus CAT ticket that I used on the shuttle instead.
Stagecoach provided not 1 but 2 odd workings today in the Newcastle Area with the usage of MetroCentre Shuttle Enviro 300's on the 11 and the 30 respectively.
27509 on the 30
