1570 now adding a touch of sparkle to the 81/81A. It's just replaced 4513 at RBS on the 1230 to Marske Estate.
1104 and 1303 both on 22/64/64A.

A solo has just left Durham on the 43 leaving a rather forlorn looking alx400 blocking stand J.
ETA possibly 2810

Big'un saw 7443 on it, too.
I'm guessing this is something to do with the tweaking/removing of the branding on some of the buses that was mentioned, yesterday.

Sapphire 7528 had a run out on the 33 and 57A. Taken off at Morpeth at 1625 and returned Ashington

So that would have been on the X14 earlier too?

Only 1415 has had its branding removed. The deckers should stay as they are...
7443 was indeed on the X12

So does that leave them short of "X12" branded to cover the full PVR, then? I'm presuming this is so that there can be some flexibility between the various Max services down there.

Prior to the summer, Durham had 7 buses (1415 plus the 6 Geminis) to cover 6 workings while Stockton had 3 (1441-3) to cover 3 boards. Now, Durham have the 6 Geminis and Stockton have the 4 Pulsars to cover the same amount of boards. 1415 will be Stockton's spare for the X66/X67 from the end of October.

It doesn't leave them short but it leaves Durham without a spare branded bus. Maybe not a great idea with those Geminis... Hopefully it can be fixed with future plans!
Stockton will utilise 1415 as a spare for both Max routes when we take over 2 workings on the new X66/X67 (PVR 7) in October.
