To be honest, Ashington doesn't seem too bad recently - or nothing worse than usual anyway.
The Solo's are a nightmare though and have been even since they arrived from Darlington pretty much. I assume they don't have long left though since 1404 came up instead of 2857 (which would've made more sense). Definitely don't want them down there though, they're due for one place and it's the scrapheap. The fact they had a full saloon allocation yesterday probably sums up what Ashington think of them.

I’m surprised 1472 hasn’t broke down on the X4 the other day someone said they could smell burning coming from the breaks after Saltburn apparently.

Actually Redcar sorted the issue so its all good
PH - BQA
Rumours circulating that some/all of the E400 MMCs down at Redcar are returning to Ashington for the winter, with 7609/10 acting as spares to 7401-6 on the X93.
7578 is staying at whitby Redcar

Did I say anything about who sorted it out no I didin't.
Well 7401 as had a successful day on the 62 which is absolutely brilliant for 7401
Whats the history with 7401
It's been off the road with engine issues for around 18 months, any previous attempts to get it running has only lasted a matter of hours.
