73138 and 73140 in service at Slatyford. 73182 and 73190 are at Stockton. Not sure what else has been done.

73175 isn’t, that’s at Stockton. They’ve just taken that back from Sunderland. I think they’ll take 73176 off Slatyford too.

73170 is working off Slatyford this morning - saw it earlier. Not sure how that fits in the grand plan !

That’s weird, I’d have thought the higher numbers would stay at Stockton as they seem to want the newer ones.

73179 has just left Slatyford for Stockton as of 8:35 this morning.

So interestingly the reason the newer 75 plate Yutongs are going to Stockton is because Middlesbrough council bought them and are practically crying that they’re up in Newcastle! I’m not even joking. The first batch they got 73089-73106 were meant for Slatyford and they paid for the ones that are up in Newcastle now so they’re complaining and requesting them to be swapped over. I’m surprised they’re swapping them with the 25 plates not the 74 plates!

Boro Council ? Is it not TVCA ?
