That's good news. Once the DB300's and B9's get their problems fixed the Double Decker Fleet should be a decent strong fleet.

Also, I don't know if 7581 has had it's machine swapped but it seems 7404 has started tracking in it's place on the X94.

 It's on temporary loan it should be back at Redcar depot tomorrow

Don't know if it's a tracking issue but 7579 & 7580 are not tracking today but instead, 7402 & 7403 seemed to be back into service and tracking again unless they swapped the ticket machines. I know 7402 was out for over a month.

Still been out with Stockton if tracking data is to be believed.

1421 still tracking for Stockton. Maybe it's just there because of 1573 being at Redcar's Depot.

Judging by the recent picture of 4711 it rear lights are off and the bonnet is hanging off. Surely this is a withdrawn bus

I would imagine it is withdrawn but the question is, what will replace it?

Well, I'm surprised 1421 is at Stockton still and 1573 was seen on the X4. Don't know why they haven't been swapped yet, unless that's a permanent thing. Just kinda strange.

Why does everything have to be Stockton to you, there is plenty other depots to get a bus to replace it not just Stockton

Anyone know what is going on with 1573 and why it's still at Redcar instead of 1421. Are they re-trialing the Streetlites on the X4 now that the Stockton EX Wright Engineer did work to them or is that still temporarily there. Just doesn't make any sense because both 1573 and 1421 are operational.

To be fair I wouldn't be surprised if it's not replaced at all. The other depots have already lost numerous buses with nothing being replaced (4x Enviro 400 MMC and the gas buses at Darlington).

They've also kept 7424 aswell.

In fairness the 4 MMCs were replaced at Ashington, but by wholly unsuitable vehicles in 1462/97/38/9.

Aye no arguments, came at a cost for Durham and Darlington though. It'll be interesting to see what on earth is actually meant to run the X21/X22 if they do reinstate the frequency since there's numerous vehicles at Blyth currently, noticed a Streetlite and 1404 have ventured South now aswell and the Solo's are being their usual selves.

Not sure if it was a tracking error but noticed 2853 done it's first run in months the other day to die (again). Feel for the engineering teams having to deal with such crap. I'm sure the bosses will all being driving in similar aged vehicles - not that they should have one.

I don't think it helps that theyve got so many of the same buses at the same age, I think not for ANE as they seem to have a good mix but i think its going to massively affect Deptford were its either Streetlites or Deckers really thats the choice. And all the streetlites are within 2 years of each other so when a issue arises its going to cause catastrophic problems, when one thing happens its just a knock on like the Dest Displays on the Streetlites at Deptford is attriocus the amount og missing pixels/not working at all

Could you explain to me how destination displays at Deptford are related to Arriva's Redcar depot?

It's the same in practice, laods of vehicles of the same type/same age suffereing with breakdowns and issues at the same time.

'I think not for ANE as they seem to have a good mix' - so how is it related to Redcar?
