The extra 7 on Friday afternoons has more-often-that-not been a Cadet or Centro recently (1923 yesterday)

1471 out on 5/5a as a cover/changeover due to the Cargo Fleet Lane roadworks, 1512 meanwhile is reportedly out on X12s

EDIT: 'Director's Cut' 1488 on 27/27a, 1415 is on X12 so not sure if 1512 is as well

That means 1441 is the only branded one out. 1553 is the StreetLite taken off 5s.
Meanwhile, 1417 has replaced 1923 for a night on 17/27. 1444 has also been on 17s while 1459 has been on the usual 17a turn.

Indeed. The current driver of it doesn't look like he is enjoying himself, either.

1451 has now ended up on the last 17a from Middlesbrough instead of the planned 1923 as the fire extinguisher on 1917 (on the 1730 17 to Kingsmead) has leaked.

1325 and 1325 on 46/48
1479 on 61/62

7477(?) was also on, and I'm pretty sure I saw another Lowlander (one which wasn't in original livery like 7444) on the 64, too.

If it's the one that leaves from Faverdale then it's just the nearest available Solo that goes out, no allocation on an evening as such.

I think, looking at the timetables, the 43/46 interwork on Sundays (48/49/49a/56/64 all interwork on Sundays as well)/

Would appear to be the 43 as there is an E200 on there as well.

It's definitely Darlington based. We only have 1464 then 1467-1472

1465 is also on the X66/7 maybe it was 1465 rather than 1466 that I seen

It's mine!!! Looking round the cab, I've definitely driven it before on more than one occasion so it's been here a while. Must have arrived with the other 146x's

Sure we got that one along with a few others to replace the X---GGO Dart's.

So in that case 1465/6 both operating X66/X67
