Potential to use one of the Northern deals, keeping another for a longer day out?

Jimmi, come and give my new E400s a try...

I've been sat at the front upstairs on 14 reg Enviros on the X21/X22 and I've thought they weren't loud enough.

(15 Jan 2015, 5:47 pm)Jimmi wrote I think two ex P&R Solos have arrived at Darlington depot but I don't think they've entered service yet.

Don't think I saw any 05/55 reg MPDs in Darlington this afternoon, think I only saw 1711, 1747, 1794 and 1799.

No idea about the MAX X1 Streetlites, although I hope they arrive soon.

Darlington look likely to keep some of their Darts now with Stockton sending 1769/71/72 to Blyth instead.

Both looked smashing.
