7515 was on the X21 this morning and would have been my transport to school for results had it not have been early...
RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings
7468 (only got a glimpse so this could be wrong) on the X21/22 this morning, on the same board as 7515 was on yesterday

Yes. At least the other 7 were deckers. Many running well late. Mine was 22 mins late from Whitby. They took everyone off for Robin Hoods Bay and put them on the next one which was 4651, then we missed it out!

I went to Scarborough in the car yesterday and we got stuck in traffic coming into Whitby and then got stuck behind slow moving vehicles so its understandable why the X93 is often late.

At least they had an inspector there trying to sort it out.

1474 was up here for a 'day trip' sort of thing. Was at Beamish (as can be seen in the pic).

Thanks for that information, it would have been that one as it came out of Park Road North on to the A167 which is the diversion route from Beamish to the A1M.

X10/X11 Max branded Gemini on the X13. Didn't catch the number as it was coming down the sliproad from Cramlington on to the A1

Not all the Geminis have been refurbished yet

I know, but at the same time it doesn't help that they're being allocated to other services. There's an unrefurbed X10/X11 Gemini off route too.

Shouldn't be any unrefurbished X10/X11 Geminis on the road - they all should be away at Bus and Coach World so they are ready for the launch.

Moving on.....

4712 worked the 1159 171 from Whitby Bus Station to the Park and Ride site and return, to assist with the loadings. I don't think 2827/8 will be on 171s next year.......
