RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Kuyoyo - 19 Mar 2014

E400 7501 is back at Redcar on the 22/64/64a rota (although it doesn't do another 22 today, been a changeover we assume)


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 19 Mar 2014

7444 on Service 24.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Kuyoyo - 21 Mar 2014

Dart 1655 and Prestige 4044 made appearances on the X3/X3a today (both also working peak time X4 short runs to Easington and Saltburn respectively)

Cadet 1917 appeared on the 15 today (not completely rare) while 1924 appeared on 9/27a as well working the last 17 (the more normal home for SB120s) which is meant to be Pulsar. Here's a selection of photos of it from Overfields this evening on its last 9 (and the last 9 back into Middlesbrough from the estate) before working the 17.

Not forgetting 1904 on 9/27A too...

Durham were once again using 7477/8 on the X1/X2, as they have a few days this week.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - David McGloin - 22 Mar 2014

1406 on X66


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 22 Mar 2014

X93 branded E400 on 81 today, couldn't quite see which one.
Stockton have 4069 on the 9 :s


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 22 Mar 2014

Durham have 7443 and 1315 both on consecutive 24s


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 22 Mar 2014

1793 was on Service 8 today.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 24 Mar 2014

Arriva branded Pulsar 1511 on Service 7.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 24 Mar 2014

Durham have DAF decker 7478 on X1/X2 again today


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 24 Mar 2014

7618 is about to leave Durham on Service 56.

7477 also on there today (again)


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Adrian - 24 Mar 2014

1476 is also on the 56/57/57A

It was heading south through Chester at about 17.30.


Re: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Adrian - 25 Mar 2014

Bit strange seeing 1470 on the 64. I know it can usually end up with anything, but can't recall a Pulsar for quite some time.

7461 is also on the 16:40 57 from Durham. It's certainly unusual having a ALX400 do that run out of Durham. Not to mention last night's 57A also being a ALX400.

Well that didn't take too long...

RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 26 Mar 2014

1506 on Service 7.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 26 Mar 2014

7464 on the 64 and 7477 on X1 today...


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 27 Mar 2014

7478 is on the X1 again today.
1651 worked the 0605 X4 from Easington however that may be on something else, I will check later Wink

Any ideas on which X93 board the B7TL is likely to operate ? Had a look this morning but just a trio of Temsa's, 4710/12 and 4720.

If the trial of 7624 is anything to go by, it won't be allocated to a set board but will appear on all 5 workings over its trial.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Jimmi - 27 Mar 2014

Some odd workings in Darlington this afternoon.

1427 on Service 2.
1646 on Services 1/5A.
1762 on Service 75/76.
R reg Dart on Service 8.

7485 is apparently at Whitby so should be on, unless its off the road (which is not unlikely!).


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - tyresmoke - 27 Mar 2014

Apparently an Ecocity on the X66 this afternoon, so my mum has just told me...

That X4 I saw 1651 on earlier is on a 64 board so not an unusual working, leaves Easington at 0602!


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - citaro5284 - 27 Mar 2014

Branded X10/X11 7611 on X4 this evening


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Kuyoyo - 28 Mar 2014

RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - nk55 - 28 Mar 2014

RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - coldav - 28 Mar 2014

Ashington had decker 7468 on the 33/57A/X14 yesterday.


RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - Kuyoyo - 28 Mar 2014

Pulsar 1452 is now on the 6, replacing 1769 - likely the last time a Pulsar will go to Stillington.
