Yeah technically it should have been especially at haughton church, but when the old 6B used to go round there, it was either the 40xx dafs, 16xx darts, or even the occasional decker that used to operate it, I had it as my ride to asda but just as I was about to get a photo 1405 pulled away

The X18 is a combination of the 518 and the 501. The 508 was one of the summer specials into the Northumberland National Park which were withdrawn after the 2013 season.

Ah yes, the now X15 and X18 are the former 501 and 505 arnt they? Though im sure I seen a service 508 far up in Northumberland years ago. Was there a service 508 up around Alnwick years ago?

1414 I presume was taken off at around 2pm, as I saw it heading to Faverdale.
Another solo repainted is 2849.
