1503, 7466 and a Quorum Commander all on the 2 today.

Anyone know if there's anything up with Blyth's Darts?

Maybe a DDA thing with the rear destination blinds as they don't seem to work well

Last X66 from Darlington (and the 1925 from Middlesbrough) is on a Middlesbrough town board (9/27/27a followed by a 29a to Nunthorpe and return) - it should be allocated 1415 but it can be any Pulsar. Saturdays you are more likely to get a non-MAX Pulsar than 1415 as 1415 is usually allocated to the S1 on Saturdays.

Wrong. That board is actually only out until 21:25, then light to the depot from Durham.

0835 out of Middlesbrough
1050 from Newcastle
1305 from Middlesbrough
1520 from Newcastle
1745 from Middlesbrough to Newcastle
2010 from Newcastle

Unless there is a vehicle transfer in Durham at 2100, it should work the 2110 to Middlesbrough and 2220 return.

Hard to get good light for this picture, due to the narrow streets and choice of sun shining on the lens or uneven shade. We could have moved further along towards the roundabout, but then risked it being obscured by other vehicles, as it would be turning right.
