Rail Replacements
Rail Replacements
Hi all
Tomorrow see's another round of rail replacements.
Coaches replace buses between Darlington and Middlesbrough all day
http://www.northernrail.org/pdfs/trackwo..._-_SLB.pdf
Also, between Middlesbrough and Sunderland until 1230
http://www.northernrail.org/pdfs/trackwo..._-_NUN.pdf
Both are Northern Rail routes and are therefore to be covered by First Rail Support. Likely to see operators such as Classic, Compass Royston, Croft Coach Travel, Enterprise Travel, Jim Hughes, M&D Travel, Stagecarriage
I personally had no luck in seeing any of the replacements today, but it seems Peter Barclay managed to find one!
Either they were running >5-10 mins late or they were running >5-10 mins early, as I tried on three occasions to get 'em!
Croft Coach Travel's Sunsundegui bodied Volvo B12M, SA02CCY, was utilised on one rail replacement service today.

This weekend sees the blockade of Darlington to Middlesbrough due to the bridge replacement at Dinsdale. Therefore there are coaches running Darlington to Middlesbrough today through to Monday.
Already seen Skelton TIL8177 out.

Another blockade tomorrow
Rail replacement coaches will operate between Middlesbrough and Darlington, Hartlepool, Nunthorpe and Northallerton.
Grand Central will also be providing coaches between Northallerton and Eaglescliffe and between Eaglescliffe and Hartlepool (I'd expect they'll be operated by Classic, keeping it "in house" so to say)
