Permant change to be Consett ran so a more suitable bus can be allocated as the Xlines X21 liveried B5s struggled in parts along the route due to length of them with 6334/5 regularly being allocated to the board that dropped onto the 86D instead.

From what I've gathered the numbers on these evening supported runs is very low (hence being council supported), might as well use one of the two Sprinters tbh although think contract spec is minimum 19 pax which I can't imagine it ever gets anywhere near at any one time or even with all the runs combined most nights.

Seemingly settled down to be a Venture Solo SR however the ex London B7TL Geminis seemed to be allocated in the first week of Consett operation.
