I imagine quite a few 60 plates have gone there seen as though the 63/X63 that use 60 plates have been using 57/58. Also ther number 1 branded buses also appear on 22 and 38 etc while the 39/40 sometines use the normal Enviero 400s rather than hybrids.

It may have been replaced by a branded ADL E300 on the X34, which was sat at its Horsley Hill terminus, or it may have come off the "E" services - which were once again suffering delays of up to 15 minutes!27727 was being used for crew shuttle

Hopefully by the end of this week, or sometime next week, the two new E200s should be delivered to South Shields - if the delivery is running to schedule. This should allow two of South Shields MAN ALX300s to transfer back to Slatyford, resulting in two more non-DDA MAN ALX300s being withdrawn or cascaded to Stockton.
