Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - August 2015

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - August 2015
Sapphire 1517 has just taken the passengers off 7627, x12 at Durham. Left 10 minutes late so must have had a problem.

1424 on the 7

4713 was on the last X93 from Middlesbrough to Whitby tonight, presumably replaced a B9 in Middlesbrough for inspection overnight. Should be swapped back in the morning

1420 today's non-MAX working on the X12 - it shall be the 1155 from Middlesbrough
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - August 2015
1409 has spent the day on 21A covering for 4652 (4658 back after missing the last 2 days)

The 17 allocation today starts as 2 Pulsars (1453 & 1492 - one booked working at present), Cadet 1911 (booked turn) and Centro 1924 (again, booked). At 1105, 1924 was replaced by 1512 (I'd like to know why - maybe the driver who brought 1924 in at that time can fill us in Wink......)

1440 was meaning doing what it is meant to do - filling in for a Streetlite on X3/X3a

1924 had the ABS light come on so had to be replaced. 1512 was dragged off again to replace 1557 which I brought in at 1330. 2 in one morning, not bad! That's what you get for working over...

Out of interest Redcar had both 1104 and 1105 on X4s by the end of the day. 1104 replaced a Streetlite which failed in Whitby (passed one being towed back tonight!) and 1105 worked the last trip to Middlesbrough presumably so that there was the right amount of Streetlites in Whitby in the morning.

Happens every day now as Redcar have (amazingly!) got all 3 Volvo B7s working every day, 7486/7 do X93s and the spare 7485 goes on 64s

1105 replaced 1565 at 1455 Whitby and stayed on til the end. Didn't see 1104, what time did you see it? Passed 1440 on a X4.

4652 was on 28B last night.
