Upstairs if you fancy a kip, downstairs if you don't!

What do 3885-3889 (NK51 UC#) do nowerdays? I've seen them on the odd school duty, but mainly parked in stanley/consett. Haven't seen one in an actual service since before the october 25 changes, on the X30.

(09 Dec 2015, 7:45 pm)pdiddy 6021 was one of the better ones... it suffered an engine problem earlier in the week, which I presume isn't financialy viable to repair, hense why its been withdrawn. It will be replaced with a red decker from Chester. How's that for a reaction hahaha
Currently we have 3875 as it's replacement , however i don't think it will have a set replacement . Probs just any spare decker from Chester. Trident or B7

Big'un made a good call to avoid Stanley, this afternoon. Husband has called off going on his work night out, too. Says there's 2" of the stuff at home.
Our changed plans have involved getting cold and wet in south shields. Nothing settled there but a few cars turned around so the roads must be slick.
