That's what I thought the other night when I heard her! She sounds like a MPD crossed with something else.

Hi - this is my first post.

I remember when she was in Turn Up and Go branding for the 151/152, I'm sure she has always had a different engine when compared to 8219/8220/8221 etc.


RE: Go North East - Dan - 31 May 2013

Following on from my post yesterday, "Doxford Clipper" MPD 603 is still at Saltmeadows, being prepared for repaint. A photo can be seen below of the progress made since yesterday:
- Yesterday
- Today.

"Diamond" Citaro 5289 is undergoing maintenance after her accident yesterday, and the progress made since yesterday evening can be seen by clicking here.

As mentioned previously, "SimpliCity" Versa 8324 was sent to Saltmeadows from Deptford as can be seen here, but she latterly returned to Deptford retaining her "SimpliCity" branding, as can just be seen here.

Also mentioned previously, a shot of 8319 can be seen by clicking here.

Regardless of that, my point still stands..!

Doxford Clipper 604 on the last ever 592 service operated by GNE.


RE: Go North East - Dan - 31 May 2013

I didn't once say that what I say is always right. I said that my point of an allocated spare not being used when it shouldn't be still stands.

The fact that this information was already known, and had been given to me prior to Dan even posting is another matter. I was told not to mention it, but you and the good ol' system did that anyway!

We're a small and welcoming community on this forum, so don't try and change that with that kind of attitude.

Ends here.

I wonder what the Ministry of Playtime's research think when they interview the driver of 3964 after its inevitable breakdown on the way to the Tees Barrage?


RE: Go North East - chris white - 31 May 2013

On my way to work this morning I spotted Wear Tees Xpress Renown 4907 (W907RBB) in Park Lane on service 99. Also Laser 4968 was out on the X3 this afternoon.
