Looks likely to have been an Engineering Test Run - given it's already back at Stockton.

A tender was issued a few weeks ago for a new circular service from Saltburn round East Cleveland on behalf of Redcar and Cleveland Council (two hourly clockwise and two hourly counter-clockwise - combined hourly departures from Saltburn) which I understand has been awarded to Stagecoach. A variety of vehicles have been out testing the route - likelihood now is it will be a standard vehicle given the extension of Tees Flex, as prior to the 18 months extension, it was assumed 44005/6/15/17 would have been retained for the work.
