(20 Jul 2025, 3:01 pm)Mike_98 wrote Once settled in and out in service, another 5 Temsa's will get dropped out and will only be probs 5 or 6 Temsas left in service then. At least them 5 or 6 will have lots of donors to use parts from until the last pulsars arrive and the other 2 Evoras get out into action. Unsure if the other 2 Evoras are even at the depot yet.

When are the last Temsas going?

Thanks for your help.

Many thanks.

Any rough estimate when the replacements will arrive to see them all off? By the end of the month?


RE: Redcar depot - tyresmoke - 21 Jul 2025

I am guessing they are awaiting another ship to bring a load more as I understand others are still waiting for parts of their order too.


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 22 Jul 2025

When are the ex Merseyside pulsar coming into service


RE: Redcar depot - Robisdave54 - 29 Jul 2025

What is happening with EvoRas 4502 and 4509? They are both showing as VOR on Bus Times. My understanding,from a passenger,  is that one was involved in an accident.


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 29 Jul 2025

And 1438 still at stockton. I know its on loan. Didnt realise stockton was struggling as much as it is.

Some of the b9s are off again. And the ex Merseyside pulsar are in service but aren't on bus times.


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 30 Jul 2025

7 temsas are out tracking today, if bustimes is anything to go off


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 30 Jul 2025

Another envora has arrived at redcar depot.
4507 has some scratches on the driver side.


RE: Redcar depot - Storx - 01 Aug 2025

Just curious, but does anyone know why there was a Temsa heading into Darlington today on it's own fuel? Believe it was 4723, but not 100% sure on that - it was 100% interurban though.

Possibly being withdrawn and stored at Darlington depot?


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 02 Aug 2025

1449 is now triple tracking.
X4
64
63

Was being used by the training school on a ‘retraining’ turn for a Redcar driver I understand

Thanks for that, makes sense since the route it was taking in didn't make sense to get to the depot (via Yarm Road).


RE: Redcar depot - Rockstar666 - 05 Aug 2025

1374 on X3 tracking as 1439


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 08 Aug 2025

7402 is currently tracking on the x3?

Do we know what actually it is as decker dont operate the x2 smd 3 because of the low bridges

This is Redcar Depot we are talking about here. 7402 is obviously being kept local when really it should be working x93/94 boards instead of using beaten up VDL Pulsars.

It’s 1376 tracking as 7402 - the B9s can’t be used on X2s or X3s beyond Redcar, they’re too tall for Marske Railway Bridge (the E400MMCs and 7609/10 can fit under that however) while all Redcar’s deckers can’t go under the bridge at Redcar East.


RE: Redcar depot - Robisdave54 - 08 Aug 2025

It doesn't matter what is tracking as what or what will fit under what bridge. Bottom line is simple? The B9's etc al were brought here to work the X93/4 boards and try and prevent the seemingly endless chaos that blights these routes not languish parked up against the fence or running on town services.

Again we have regular cancellations and overcrowding as ageing, wholly unsuitable VDL Pulsars deputise, even the Evoras have been pulled from the work they were brought here for.


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 15 Aug 2025

1372 entered service today. Abit smokey exhaust but seems quick. Paint work looks rather shabby though


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 16 Aug 2025

2866 reportedly transfered to arriva midlands


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 18 Aug 2025

4509 on the 62 today


RE: Redcar depot - Robisdave54 - 19 Aug 2025

Anyone know what is wrong with B9TL 7404. Being VOR since 8th July according to Bus Times.

It's at Diagtest in Durham.


RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 19 Aug 2025

BU25 ZDW parked up in redcar depot presuming its going tk be 4510. Believe there only 4501 to arrive.
