Allocated board to the 1/5/5A/X1 due to a college contract, supposed to sapphire spare 7538 bus as that’s “town only” has to be one of the branded examples

The following have not been allocated today *according to BusTimes*
1511 - 1514 - 1592 - 1593 - 1604 - 1607 - 1609 - 1612 - 4650 - 4806 - 4813
Some of the above have not been out for 2 or more days with some of the StreetLites being off for longer.
In addition to the above a number of swaps have taken place over the course of the day with some buses being taken off services in places including 1603 requiring a tow by Alpha from Durham Bus Station this afternoon.
Same again today; 1594 is currently sat in Darlington town center awaiting a helping hand back to the depot
Spoke to the driver that was on 1603 on Saturday when it broke down and he had to get the service bus back as there was nothing to replace 1603
