So something I want to point out. I think Ashington should withdraw 1800/1801/2809/2812/2813. Mainly because there are showing to be performing badly on the 57/57A rota. Cause today 7484 and 7515 are on it today with a failed 2813 without 2812 or 2809 replacing it. It makes me wonder now that 1579 and 1580 have gone to Belmont that now leaves 1407 being the only long single decker at Ashington which is rarely allocated to the 57 rota. I think Ashington should ethier.

A/ get the darts from Blyth and put them on or

B/ bring two long single decekrs up to replace them like VDL Pulsar. Cause there isn't a need for a decker to be put on that route as it's never busy enough to have one on. I think the 57/57A should have VDL Pulsar allocated full time. Like give 1407 a full time allocation. Pretty sure Blyth won't mind giving 1497 up to Ashington then all you need is two more Pulsar

Btw this is just my opinion about the darts and solos at Ashington
