Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - January 2016

Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - January 2016

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - January 2016
'NHS' Solo on 85 through Corbridge towards Newcastle @ 19:35.

I looked for a fleet number but could only read 'NHS' on the front quarter (and '85' on the rear destination blind!) -otherwise base Arriva livery.

1450 ended up replacing 1405 on the late X66/X67 board.

1405 appears to have ended up on 28s while 2829 is reported to have replaced a Pulsar about half 5 on 27s

Not very often you get reports of a branded Stockton Pulsar off route. 1489 is reported to be out on 27C duty today - presently be inbound from Nunthorpe on a 28b before working the 1215 X12 from Middlesbrough, the 1435 17, the 1645 28b and the 1815 X12.

Funny, I was told 1489 by a reliable source when it was up in Nunthorpe at 1130.

Not all of them do. I don't think the ones that go up to Berwick interwork. 7513 went up to Berwick.

To be fair we've only got 6 Cadets now so even with 100% output there'll be at least one Pulsar somewhere on the 17/17a these days (PVR 7)

Will have been the plan all along - the early X12s seem to be late regularly at present.

Actually it wasn't!
It was planned to go on board 9D as the inspector told the driver to wait for it coming in and then go out light to get back on time. The X12s are late because of traffic through Birtley & Low Fell in towards Gateshead

1440 on 22.

Often branded Stockton Pulsars off route on a Sunday,
