Regulars on Sundays - X12s interwork with 9/17/27/27a/28b at various points during the day so it's more common to see a standard-liveried Pulsar on Sundays than a MAX one
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - October 2015 - BusLoverMum - 05 Oct 2015
Eco 23 bus on the 22
Edit: 1576. It looks set to be on all day. Left Durham on the 10:07

Think Belmont have either 1479 or a 6 branded example on the 7.

It didn't get back to Durham until 13:30. They seem to be getting badly delayed again. Had one pass us Durham bound about 20 minute late, earlier. Didn't notice if it came back out again, as I was busy at the back of the house.
Edit - it did go back out again, as it's just come past. They seem to be working on 3.5 hour round trips, today.

Big'un spied a Sapphire 6 on the X12
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - October 2015 - PH - BQA - 07 Oct 2015
Ashington 56 plate MPD on the X22 this evening, heading into Ashington around 7:15, I assume it was meant to work the 7:15 to Newcastle as well, however as it was nowhere near the bus station when I saw it, hopefully it was replaced.
Also, 7506 which I noted early was absent from the run it should have been on, operated the 6:45 from Newcastle tonight, a run that should have been operated by 7524 if I've got my calculations right.
