Firstly, I wanted to know if 7518 is rare on the X21/X22.
Secondly I was saying I had 7411 on my X10 today to Regent Centre, it was very good, screamed though which I found odd.
Finally, I wanted to add 7411 was also on the X10

A lot of the pulsars do scream. The better ones are quite tuneful.

The not so good ones just vibrate. The one on the 21a to boro this mornng (didn't catch the number) brought to mind that lesser known U2 album, Rattle Yer Bum.

(29 Oct 2015, 4:16 pm)BusLoverMum Big'un's haul from a day in Arriva-land

Non-Sapphire Pulsar on 24
1512 on the 9/27A
1570 on Teesside 22
1502 and a driver who didn't know the route on the X67
1504 on the X66

1512 eventually ended up on 5/5a and indeed is out all night replacing a Streetlite that broke down on Ormesby bank about 1430

Unsurprisingly it was 1553 that broke!

1517 is on X12 today, while 1415 is on 15s

Edit: 1517 appears to be on loan to Stockton? 1035 ex Middlesbrough

Either 7515/6 is being kept local or its going to be swapped with 7472 on the X15 later.

As 7518 is an 'all routes spare', I can report it on here along with 7410/1 and 7515/6 if I wished...?
