Right allocation? It's branded for the X14.

It certainly is X14 branded, so I don't see how this is odd? (this photo was taken a few weeks back).

4659 is branded for X14. 4653 is branded Quick Links into Newcastle, but is the set allocation for a X14 board.

4659 was removed from the X14 at about 1000 this morning due to a water leak, and substituted with a DAF ALX400.

4659 then replaced Sapphire 7524 on the X22, which had a major problem of it only being able to reach 10mph max. That was at about 11am.
1924 on 7, while 2829 was on the 6
1470 on the extra X12 and 1473 on the normal working behind that
2862 appears to have overheated in Stockton on the X66

Seems like a pretty serious problem! 

Any idea what caused it, or how long it had been like that?

Sounds like a version of limp mode, caused by running out of adblue!

1418 was also on 21A, 1512 replaced 4654 at 1145 so that may well have gone to Darlington also. 4658 definitely still at Stockton tonight.
NK56 HKW and NK05 GVY are on the 35/35A today

Ashington are starting to have vehicle shortages again. 7445/7446/1408/7494/4509 which all are supposed to operate the 35/X20/34 have been off the road. So I'm told...
