RE: Arriva North East - Rare and Odd Workings
Should be walloped with a massive fine and all GBF funding stripped and paid back to the Govt for continuously misusing the 308 hybrids if it continues. GNE don't do it with 6056 - 6070 so why do Arriva do it? They could easily paint one of their DB300's in Hybrid Colours as a dedicated spare (minus references to Hybrid) for the 308 or, they could stop being so stingy with the timings and give the 308 more time to keep ontime. I know GNE aren't perfect but at least they make a half decent effort unlike Arriva. Same with the 306 and the school runs and as an operational issue, the X9 workings.
