I caught route X93 on Thursday as planned. As I was offered an earlier breakfast at Premier Inn at Middlesbrough, I caught route X4 to Whitby (Streetlite 1562) in case it gave me more choice there. When I arrived there was an X94 worked by a Silver Gemini branded for Whitby Park & Ride. The next bus was an X93, the 9.20 from Middlesbrough, which was a Volvo B9TL as hoped (7406)!
I did see a MAX former London VLA too.
