Couple from Redcar today saw 1105 and 4651 on service 63... Also on there were all of the R-COO Darts but they're about normal now!
Stockton ended up with Pulsar 1512 on service 17 this afternoon, it was a nice replacement for 4006!

Oops, perhaps I got the fleet number wrong as the timing seems right - 1229 Morpeth to Kirkhill.

I think a Sapphire has only ever left the 7 a handful of times

There's been at least two occasions where they've operated the 1/5/5A.

I see, I rarely see anything other than a Sapphire on the 7 - not even a standard liveried Pulsar etc

Sure was 1520.
Stockton Prestige 4069 ended up working services 9/27A today, possibly for the final time?? Cadet 1910 started the day on service 5/5A but was soon taken off.

Why the final time?

Hopefully this one might be one to be withdrawn in the next couple of weeks once Ashington can release vehicles for cascade.

4505 is on the 57A
RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings - phillip - 28 Jun 2014
yes that'll be because nk56 hkw is on 35 and nk05 gwc has recently sustained accident damaged

v214 djr bus was on x18 possibly short of a decker

I saw 1492 yesterday on the X2 - is that rare?
The X2 runs through CLS, where I live, so I occasionally get on it. Am I right when I say the Durham boards use Gemini 2s and the Stockton boards use Pulsars? I can name the Durham Deckers but there appear to be so many Pulsars from Stockton I can't keep track.
