Why do they need to loan a vehicle when there's already one available  Huh

To get something more suitable than 7466 to run the 2?

And a Sapphire 6 Pulsar has just passed me on the 22! (Heading towards Durham for 3pm-ish)

Edit: 1526 - it's gone out again, should arrive at Sunderland for 4:30-ish.

Due to the Accident on the A66 this morning anything and everything was thrown on to the X66/X67 I believe at one point 4814 was on a X66 just to try and get some sort of service from darlington

Apologies! Out of interest, was 7466 still on there, I saw it at lunch, but the opportunity to post it didn't arise until much later in the day.

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2016 - Kuyoyo - 04 Mar 2016

1468 and 2804 on 17
1571 on 63

1418 has gone out on the 1535 X12 from Middlesbrough but is running 20-25 minutes down (that working also terminates in Durham on the return journey)

RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - March 2016 - biglugs@yahoo.com - 04 Mar 2016

It replaced 1443 which then dropped back onto the 1610 replacing 1415 which has since ended up on 9 and the 1720 5a.
