On the topic of SRs, not much hype about the ones at Hexham today. Unless they've been delayed and aren't out yet, of course.

All five entered service this morning.

This has allowed loanee Optare Solo SR 9104 to transfer to Riverside. I understand it will see allocation to the Byker ASDA contract from tomorrow, in place of MPD 563.

I saw one of the new 16-reg Hexham Solos about 09:30 in Acomb today running the 682 towards Hexham.

It looked very smart in the new Tynedale links livery.

Looking at the timetable (09:07) it was probably running late (or my time was way out).
