That'll be the one I noted this morning I bet! If it wasn't and there were two Parks on... oops!
Been a hard day for the buses again today - don't cope well with the heat at all (I bet AdamY and Michael coped better in the heat today, in fact!):
- "Wear Tees Xpress" 4909 expired at Peterlee Bus Station today while working service X7. IIRC, 4908 replaced her.
- "East Durham" MPD 573 was also feeling unwell. She couldn't perform the 202 service to Seaham as she should have, and passengers were left stranded for an hour until the next service arrived. Depot said they couldn't do anything because they were short of vehicles. Deptford brought along "Northern" MPD 547 to cover its upcoming runs afterwards though.
- "Northern" Cadet 8267 expired outside of Southmoor School, Sunderland, today too. Was there about an hour ago, with the driver managing to sunbathe whilst waiting for an engineer! Assuming an engineer can't fix it on the spot, I expect 8267 will be another Bradley job as was the case with 4909.
