Metro 4082.

Stinks of sweat and the Next Stop Announcements are so loud, even Foo Fighters cannot drain them out!

Happy to report that it was on-time.

Think I've only had one 5+ minute delay this week - thankfully the disruption this week has not affected me.

Why is it just me that has never been on a delayed Metro, even though I get it almost everyday?

I personally don't think it is that bad.

I've never been delayed on an 82/82A either, and regularly see the majority (if not all) running on-time in the system, but you seem to find them running 15+ mins late!

Fancy swapping my daily travel arrangements for yours so we can see everything running late?!

No I never said that - the Metro is by far worse than the 82/82A.

There was a diversion due to a Road Closure at Usworth College, so the 4/82/82A were diverting via Northumberland Way/Inkerman Road and back onto normal route.

For the 82/82A this would mean from the Junction at Usworth College, instead of turning left it had to turn right up to Inkerman Road, so it went back on itself adding several minutes to the journey time each way, hence why it was running 10 to 15 Minutes Late.

Has Flickr ever flaming worked since they updated it, every time I've tried to upload photos this week I have had issues with photos timing out. Getting increasingly fed up with it and the whole Enviro 400 thing is making me absolutely despair using it right now.

Oh and for added fun I am a bit deprived of sleep at the moment.

Nah, it's not that at all... Mentioning the 82 in the first place was just me kidding around - you've never seen the Metro running late (when it is renowned for its poor reliability figures) and I've rarely seen the 82/82A running late (in person or on the real time information system) despite your regular complaints of it running outside of the traffic commissioner's guidance of on-time (1 min early, 5 mins late).

Just adding the flip side of the coin for a bit of fairness, is all.
