DAILY DIGEST: 24/02/13

First, several "TEN" branded B9TLs were put back out in service today. For some of them, it was their first time out in service. Photos can be seen below:

Those B9TLs that weren't put back out in service were transferred to their appropriate depots from Saltmeadows today, as can be seen below:

As a result of this, several Citaros were once again transferred to Gateshead. Difference this time was that this included Hexham-based Citaros too, as the B9TLs replaced several different Citaros through the afternoon, and not just Winlaton-based ones! A photo of one can be seen below:

Next, 4908 - which was the final "Crusader" branded Renown - has been debranded, as can be seen below:

Also, "Blaydon Racers" branded Citaros have had their destination blinds re-coded; as such, they have acquired a red coloured square around their blue/purple number. This is not particularly new, but can be seen in the picture below:

Work on Go North East's new depot was postponed today - they must have Sundays off! Although they worked through the snow yesterday, they didn't manage to work today. Anyway, photos of progress can be seen below:

Solar Fusion 4952 has returned to Gateshead's depot, and the first photo of it has hit Flickr. It can be seen in the blue and black base below:
