(29 Jul 2018, 4:05 pm)S830OFT wrote With Newcastle's allocatons changing quite a lot am I correct with this allocation?
1: Enviro 400s
6/7/8: ManViro200s - yes, but in reality can throw up ALX300
10/11: ALX300s - two E400 boards also, but generally all ALX300 worked. Saturday tends to sees E400. E400MMC on Sundays.
12: Enviro 400s - yes, the spare two E400Hs on paper are allocated to the 12s, but appear on any Walkergate decker service really. E400Hs on a Sunday.
18: 1x Kinetic, 2x Enviro 400s - generally...
22: Enviro 400s
30/31/36: Enviro 200 MMCs - spare E400MMCs on a Sunday tend to also see use here
32/32A: ManViro200s
35: ManViro200s
38: Enviro 400s - E400Hs on a Sunday
39/40 Enviro 400s Hybrid
62/63/X63: Enviro 400 MMCs - 60-plate E400 on X63s minus peak interworking MMC ones
X47: Enviro 400s, ALX300s - X47 standalone most of the day with ALX300, peak express interworks see the deckers
X78: ALX300s
X82: ALX300s
X87/X88: ALX300s, Enviro 400s.
71/72: MAN E300/E200 on paper. Often see an E200MMCs or two.
87: MAN ALX300
100: MAN E300
Also with the 18 only having one single decker allocated to, what are 22022, 22024 and the spare kinetic often allocated to? anything, covering lost mileage or breakdown. 22024 was on the 1 in the morning Friday then 39 in afternoon.
Also is it true Slatyford are due to take more cascaded vehicles to see off more ALX300s? Nothing imminent, but I'm sure there's plenty going on behind the scenes to aid their withdrawal
