(25 Jul 2021, 11:30 am)peter Yorkshire Tiger is now defunct as of today and replaced by Transdev's Team Pennine - so these vehicles are either ex-Yorkshire Tiger vehicles going for repaint into Transdev's new livery. Or they could be the three Omnilinks which weren't included in the sale...it's very possible these could transfer to Arriva NE as Arriva Yorkshire (where the rest of Tiger's newer vehicles have ended up) don't have any Scania vehicles.Hopefully it'll be the omnilinks, prehaps they could replace the CP omnicities or Ashington ones.

The 3 Vehicles were Optare Tempos.
Yep. Didn't get a good enough look to find out what they were from appearance but that's what we saw.
Definitely ready for repaint as they looked quite scuffed and only had a few remnants of their stripes.

(23 Aug 2021, 10:24 pm)Ryland Looks like Redcar are really struggling with 4 to 5 Stockton buses on loan. What would actually happen if more buses are declared failures. Would other depots step in or would they just withdraw services. Does not look promising for the current Red car fleetThey would probably do the same as Belmont and loan other vehicles and/or drivers from other areas or even local independents.

(23 Aug 2021, 10:56 pm)tyresmoke Believe there is only the 3 Centro’s (1534-6) on loan at present but equally there are some Redcar vehicles parked up not needed.
Stockton have been helping to cover a handful of services when needed with their own drivers
