Wondering if it was a late replacement considering that the driver is not in Sapphire uniform which is unusual for a Darlington working (same can't be said for Belmont) and I've not seen him on the 7 before.

Someone has probably failed that was originally supposed to be on sapphire so rather than having a sapphire shift stood they have dragged someone off the normal work and put that driver on sapphire, I'll try and investigate and let you know

1477 and 7477 on the 46/48 are not rare.

7609 seems to do the X24 on Saturday if it isn't required on the X12, much like Stockton often use MAX spare 1415 on the S1.

Them services are being turned short due for safety due to objects being thrown at buses.

Of course they were taken today. You should have been focusing on the buses/trains instead of taking hundreds of photos of me! Tongue

It was a overtime shift for that driver on 1508 jimmi, he doesn't have the sapphire uniform so they just let him wear that one, this driver was originally on sapphire many moons ago
