Had a feeling Ferryhill would be up there, I knew one of the villages down there would have loads; had a feeling that somewhere like Tindale might have been the same as the Arriva 6 and Darlington X1 are all over the place allocations wise with the X21 throwing up all sorts aswell.
How many types to see vary by day on the allocations and some are inflated by just one run/round trip that spends the remainder of the day on other routes, for today at least Tindle Crescent had a pretty mediocre turnout on the 6 & X21 during the daytime today with vast majority of 6 being Pulsar's and 7417 and X21 was mostly B5TLs and StreetDeck's (B9's appeared but didn't head that far south):

* 762 tracked on an early morning 6 that Darlington seemingly run (on a 7 board) however I'm not totally convinced this was the actual bus allocated.
Although technically classed as a town with a population of just over 10k, Crook can boast a pretty varied selection, especially on weekdays from Arriva & Weardale...
