Darts 1301, 1305, 1617, 1750; Cadet 1905, and Volvo B10BLEs 4507 and 4511 shown as sold on the same fleet allocation document.
In other news; MAX-spec Volvo B7TL/Alexander ALX400 7423 is now at Belmont, allowing Lowlander 7437 to be withdrawn. Volvo B7TL/Alexander ALX400 7416 has transferred to Ashington due to the PVR increase on the X18. VDL Pulsar 1414 has transferred from Darlington to Stockton due to the PVR reduction at the former, and the PVR increase at the latter.
I wouldn't expect 7423 to be on the road any time soon. As usual, Durham's engineering team have had a look at it and found numerous things wrong with it. On Saturday, it had no wheels at all and was undergoing major work.
