RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - Dan - 14 Mar 2015 Unidentified Nexus Solo on 55 Unidentified MAX Gemini on 308 RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - omnicity4659 - 14 Mar 2015 Haven't seen 7491/2 today. MPD 1790 is still on the 35A. StreetLite 1579 is on standby (now, guess who's on allocations today?) Enviro400 7518 is on the X21/X22 circuits There is a MAX X18 branded E400 in the depot ATM.

Saw 7518, but it left on an X22 when I was arriving in Ashington on 1790, didn't want to wait around till it came back over 2 hours later!

Doesn't help that 1426 is confined to town's at the moment - on the 11 again today. Yeah they don't have a spare Pulsar so if they're wasting one on towns then they've got no chance. RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - Dan - 14 Mar 2015 I spy with my little eye a large number of odd workings! PS: Each word is a different odd working! ![]() RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - Stewy - 14 Mar 2015 (14 Mar 2015, 2:24 pm)Jimmi wrote Solo on the 12/12A in Darlington. That's not really a rare working now but it kind of is, there's usually one on either the 2/11/12 due to the 21/X21 needing EcoCities RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - peter - 14 Mar 2015 (14 Mar 2015, 9:02 pm)Stewy wrote That's not really a rare working now but it kind of is, there's usually one on either the 2/11/12 due to the 21/X21 needing EcoCities However, there was also Pulsar 1426 on the 11. So at least one of them shouldn't have been there!

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - omnicity4659 - 15 Mar 2015 No odd workings to report today. Wonder what's been happening on the Coast and Castles today. ![]() RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - PH - BQA - 15 Mar 2015 (15 Mar 2015, 2:30 pm)Tommy_1581 wrote No odd workings to report today. Wonder what's been happening on the Coast and Castles today. Two X15 branded Enviro 400's were on the X18, didn't see any other buses to know if there was anything else. RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - Tom - 15 Mar 2015 Are Streetlites booked for the 52/53 on Sundays? If not 1584 was on there today.

I think it it's just down to Arriva's famously poor allocation system RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - tyresmoke - 15 Mar 2015 (15 Mar 2015, 2:54 pm)Tom wrote Are Streetlites booked for the 52/53 on Sundays? 43/46/52/53 all interwork on a Sunday but as there's only 3 306s out (4 from next week) I suppose they could use spare Streetlites on there, after all they don't have a huge allocation of Pulsars to cover everything RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - omnicity4659 - 16 Mar 2015 4653 replaced a Sapphire E400 on X21/22 7468 ran light from Ashington to Morpeth RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - PH - BQA - 16 Mar 2015 (16 Mar 2015, 11:58 am)Tommy_1581 wrote 4653 replaced a Sapphire E400 on X21/22 Any idea which run?

Was it heading towards Newcastle?

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2015 - omnicity4659 - 16 Mar 2015 Aye sure, a Max E400 went into the layovers earlier so this might be the next Sapphire replacement.
