Durham seem to want to use deckers on there (and the region is short of modern deckers - a fact now becoming apparent with the X4/X5 MAX upgrade and the 6 Sapphire upgrade) and I think originally the plan was for a Pulsar board to remain on the Durham X12, obviously that all changed. Of course, ideally Durham shouldn't be putting 1415 out on the 6 but if it's all that spare and it's not required on the X12, what else do you do?
I didn't want a Pulsar on there. Perhaps Arriva management want a Pulsar on there, seeing as a spare has been branded for the X12? My point remains though. Why does the depot get away with going for their preference, rather than using the branded spare?
Durham wouldn't be able to put 1415 out on the 6, if it was on the X12 as intended. The Lowlander would be on there instead. Of course it makes things difficult when it's out first thing on a morning most days.
