Yeah I seen that as I was coming back from Sunderland, it was a new starter driving it so it looks like 4646 was a one off appearance on there

1455 on 5 today as 1512 was off. Streetlites constantly swapped as we are having problems with them at the moment.

Soooo, from the past two days, 1416 and 1516 both made appearances on the X26 yesterday, today, 1507 on X1 while a Streetlite stayed in the depot, 1407 on 2's, 4813 on 12's as a replacement for 1309, I'm almost certain 2857 did a 7 to Ferryhill late afternoon, it was definitely one of the 59 reg Solos.

1407 is goosed was on it earlier and it struggled going up the small incline near the railway station
1309 broke down at the airport (you managed to kill another one Mr Pottski?)
4813 should have been on the 21 but got replaced by 4811
1414 was on X75/76 sounding a bit ropey

1414 was terrible a couple of weeks ago when I had it, no the wonder it was transferred! I wasn't at the wheel when 1309 managed to cook itself, although I had got out of the drivers seat about 20 mins earlier!

1517? on X12 leaving Middlesbrough at 1335. Had momentary confusion when that turned up and 1512 on the 5 at the same time lol

For those who are interested, Max OmniCity 4650 will be leaving Darlington shortly to cover a 21 service. NIS up to Sedgefield, then work the 21 back to Darlington, then possibly back again. 1506 is also on X26.

Will it pass through Newton Aycliffe on it's way back to Darlington and if so roughly what time?

Does the 21 serve Newton Aycliffe before or after Segefield? Your answer would lie there, i assume will be covering for a breakdown so will probably be a bit late.
