As a result of today's duty changes on Teesside, service 38 ceases to interwork with the 36 at all times. As such, 22017's appearance on the 0815 36 from Stockton to Hartlepool this morning is now once again considered unusual (it also worked a 52 but that's normal apart from that one normally seeing E300 operation).
Another change as a result of this change is the end of the decker working on 36s.
