In previous years they've taken the Olympians back to the depot and left the ALX300s to do all the work until later in the afternoon when the demand is higher again.
Still one Olympian out alongside an ALX300 and a few Enviro400s.
16839, 22050 and a couple of Enviro400s were all doing the shuttles when we were in Sunderland earlier. 16833 came out, but did a loop around the city centre before returning to the depot. I'm guessing it's because the queues were getting smaller and smaller.
