There's been 2 sapphire 6 pulsars on the 22, this afternoon. Problems around the leazes bowl roundabout thanks to yet more roadworks.

Wonder if this year's order will include some newer Sapphires to supplement 7522-7528?

No more Sapphires. Sapphire has been abolished to make way for the new corporate identity.

I'm not sure it'll affect this years orders as they'll be due in the next month or two.

I'm told that Wales' new E400Citys for the Sapphire 1(?) are in the new livery and specification.

Urmmm? Wow that's odd is Darlington closer to Hartlepool than Durham?
