Also does anyone know if Redcars ALX's are actually driveable, like can they operate? I'm guessing not otherwise they would be on the 62. I was on 7425 the other week on the X93 but that ones now off the road.

(19 Feb 2024, 6:34 pm)tyresmoke wrote 7424/6 are shown on the latest allocation as disposal and for scrap. 7425 is not, and as you say was out on X93s until recently! Perhaps they’ll use those two for bits to keep 25 going, and stick it on 62s?!
7609/10 have another summer on the Park & Ride until they need replacing. I suspect this is where two of the B9s will end up permanently next year. 7401 is due to go to Yorkshire for major work I gather.

Are Durhams ALX's and E200's getting scrapped do ya know? Surely, it would make sense just to throw them (ALX's) at Redcar's 62 which then gives Redcars Single Deckers some breathing space for a while and creates more capacity on the 62. Even them E200's, yeh they may struggle on hills but would suit the likes of the 62/63 services or even giving the E200's as Spares to Stockton for any broken down Streetlites and Pulsars on the 8/9 and 29 Services. Just a shame to see them go to scrap if they are when they could have their uses else where as more spares.

(19 Feb 2024, 9:48 pm)Shrek wrote Talk in the community is that Arriva want to get some temporary deckers to improve capacity and remove a couple of the Pulsars on the 43/44/45 until the new buses arrive. Reading the posts in the last couple of days, is it likely capacity on those services might shrink rather than grow soon?
