I think at least as a short term solution although it might get to the point where the Saltburn 1/2 goes the same way as the 18 did with it registered but the start date been put back a few times before it eventually quietly gets dropped.

The plan for the 1/2 was changed late into the original planned start date from E200s from Hartlepool to E200MMCs from the home fleet - simply because Hartlepool cannot maintain any E300s, hence why 27805/12 have entered service at Stockton as replacements for the ALX300s rather than Hartlepool and the two MANs that were due off last month have undergone MOT.
