Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - September 2016

If you think the X21/X22 are bad, I suggest visiting Darlington and seeing our rotten Omnicitys on the MAX X26/X27 and X66/X67.

Mentioning the Omnicities, whilst I was on 4644 on X67 on Wednesday, a rather large man was using one of poles to help him get out of his seat and unfortunately pulled the pole out of its socket in the ceiling.
Not sure if a 10 am journey on the X67 is always like this, but 4644 was full with 14 standing by the time we arrived at Stockton and X66 behind had overtaken us. Though despite such a full bus there were probably only about 4 paying passengers including myself.
