The 36***'s arrival at Sunderland resulting in the cascade of the 35***'s caused a neighbouring plea from Newcastle if you like, because they were in much greater need to withdrawn their non-DDA ALX200 Darts, since investment in midi-buses was taken more priority outside of Newcastle. So until further orders to cascade Darts, I'd say there is no rush to get the 35***'s back to their original home, especially with investment back in 2011 of their 61-plate E200's - which ousted the 35*** series Darts from Shields in the first place! Matt.
