(16 Feb 2018, 5:50 pm)Pulsar wrote Saw a dart on the A1 today. First time was sometime before 11, travelling northbound and left the A1 at the Seaton Burn roundabout. Second time it was on the back of an Ian Bradley tow truck travelling southbound seen near the Kingston Park slip road at around 16:50
The livery was all over orange and I could not see any fleetnames. Not sure who this may belong to.
I noticed that Dart this afternoon joining the A19 from Seaton Burn at 14:40 all of a sudden smoke started coming from the engine bay to the point I was unable to read the number plate. The Dart had to pull over to the side of the road and the driver (looked to be an engineer) quickly vacated the vehicle.
There was no branding on the vehicle apart from an easy access sticker on one of the off side windows the shade of orange looked similar to the Sainsbury's branded bus that Arriva had in Whitby.
