E200 is 1322
1403 on x10
7627 on the 6
1790 on 56 (though this seems to be normal, lately)

Kind of have to agree here, seems whichever examples that aren't on the 61/62 and 168 on any given day, seem to be allocated to the 56/86.

Guessing that the 3/5A will be allocated Solo's on a Sunday based on today's observations, but as it interworks with the 3, I'm surprised that it isn't using the 3/3A/3B branded examples.

Wonder if the reason for the switch from EcoCity's on the Sunday 5A's is because of either the EcoCity's possibly being a bit large to get round the 3 route or possibly because the 3 and 5A now operate on a Sunday night using the same buses as it does during the daytime, could imagine it to be a bit of a faff switching the EcoCity's with Solo's for the evening runs.

Speaking of the new evening 5A between Darlington and Newton Aycliffe, here is 2858 on the first Darlington - Aycliffe Sunday evening run earlier.

Was mentioned on here earlier. Can only assume they've decided to allocate the EcoCitys to the 1/5/5A/12/19 rather than the 8/8A although I haven't seen a 8/8A yet today.

That'll be the one that came off the 22, just after noon (it was almost 20 minutes late, passing us)
