Being replaced by 1444 as I post this.
1916 is getting a good run-out to test its ‘new’ gearbox - it’s on 15s tonight.

This has operated an X8 into Newcastle this morning, arriving Haymarket at 9:30. It was then swapped for 1504 for the return journey to Blyth.

1508 had a new tyre sometime yesterday so probably been kept local today
7536 was appalling yesterday on the 7 according to 1 driver hitting a top speed of 36mph on a 60mph road
