Im informed Cadet 1906 has transferred to redcar ( temp) to assist on cover for frequenta repaints as stocktons are put on hold to allow redcar pulsars to be done first . 1906 is on 22/64/64A today
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2016 - Kuyoyo - 09 Jul 2016
1906 is working 22s today as the inter working is weekdays only (and seemingly won't exist after Friday)

It was 1425 from Middlesbrough
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2016 - BusLoverMum - 09 Jul 2016
OK, to summarise Belmont, let's just say nearly everything
The 22 is almost entirely double deckers and from what Husband has said, might have made a few extra runs. The sapphire streetlites have been seen on the 43 and 48. I'm sure big'un will give me his list, later.

I'd guess so. The 24 had its normal allocation, this time. We had quite a lot of passengers for Peterlee.

That'll be the second one we saw, then.
Our journey home was on 7455. Bells don't work - thankfully the lights did, so the driver knew we wanted off as we were upstairs and those stairs are far to steep for me to tackle when the bus is moving, particularly with my sore shoulder - and it crawled up silent bank at snail's pace. Rewarded us by belching black smoke in our faces after we got off it. Hate to imagine how the Y reg Lowlanders coped with that stretch of road if one of the 57 reg struggled that badly.

Maybe not specific to the North East but
A Arriva Yorkshire Pulsar passed me on the A1M at Barton heading in the Darlington direction, What makes it more bizarre is that it had a good load of people on it, Yet had Arriva Yorkshire on its front Destination Display.
Anyone know where it's going or doing?

The event took place at Longfield School in Darlington, only one team out of three turned up from Yorkshire and that was there vehicle taking them to the tournament
The tournament has been going on for 4 years now and the last two years has been won by Wakefield
2814 was also sent from Northumbria area
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2016 - BusLoverMum - 11 Jul 2016
2819 in place of a breakdown on the 22.
Probably be better at Silent Bank than a lowlander, mind. And we've just been papped by a curly haired chap.
