Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - October 2014

Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - October 2014

RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings
Very rare - an Omni City is on the 75/76 Barnard Castle run today in Darlington.
RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings
1406 has a problem with its turbo there's oil in it and there trying to flush it out on the X66, not surprised that 1427 is on 11 keeping it closer to town for when it goes bang as that has a major problem with it, omnicity on the 75/76 will be due to a pulsar being back on the X1, as 2829 is back in Darlington now

I was on 1427, why does it haven  screen and speakers? I though it was only the 2013/14 pulsars that were being fitted out?

They are for next stop announcements for the 1/5/5A although there isn't enough 13 reg examples to cover the 1/5/5A PVR so the 09 reg examples and 1498 are receiving them.

Ahh, so every pulsar then? Will the X1 MAX have it too then?

1587 was on the 43 (If I can remember correctly, definitely wasn't the 306 though) tonightÂ
