RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2015 - tyresmoke - 28 Jul 2015
Sapphire 1518 seen in Middlesbrough about 1250 on X66.
1457 on 5s for us, not sure which Streetlite is missing though... Might be 1550

Isn't 1518 a 24-branded one? If so, what the heck is it doing on the X66!?

I thought you would have known. You seem to know just about everything.

If that is on the X66 it is a seriously rare working!

I've been informed from when it was sighted in Stockton that it was a 7 branded example

Just shows how so much outrage can be caused by a single typo.
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2015 - tyresmoke - 28 Jul 2015
Woops lol wouldn't be the first time I missed the fleet number haha
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2015 - passenger_10 - 28 Jul 2015
7518 appeared on the X15 this morning. At some point during the day it was swapped with 7521 which turned up in Berwick earlier this evening.

yep 7618, I passed it at Dalton-le-Dale while I was driving to Sunderland, trying to remember the number as I cant text and drive at the same time lol, noticed the decker coming towards me as it had a dark front of a max and not a sapphire.
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2015 - tyresmoke - 28 Jul 2015
I am told Jesmond used Scania 4663 on the 494 works service tonight - very rare as its usually always a double deck!
RE: Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2015 - Kuyoyo - 28 Jul 2015
1325 on 2220 X12 from Middlesbrough (booked DB250 unless it's not on a 6 at present)

What's the likelihood of 4663 getting repaired?

At 8-9 years old? Pretty unlikely
