A vehicle operating service 12 was involved, which would most likely be a Pointer Dart. However, Brand New ADL E200 37143 was also on that service on Saturday. At least no-one was injured.

In all seriousness, it is such a shame, if so.
Similar to the services at Stockton receiving investment: even if the high loadings are only on one section of the route, I'm sure double deckers could quite easily be justified on a large number of journeys on this section. I know a number of these passengers might be reluctant to climb some stairs too, it would be good to see double deckers return on the Economic services.
