(30 Jul 2013, 2:51 pm)Daniel wrote No movements according to Fleet Allocation this week, but it may be worth noting that 6028 (Washington-based President) appeared on the "Whey Aye Five 0" service 50 today.
Could this be covering for a breakdown in the Washington area and on temporary loan to Chester-le-Street, or do we think it's an official transfer which hasn't been noted on Fleet Allocation?

I'd say a Loan as a Similar Thing has happened in the past, with Metrolink Solar going on the 50 as can be seen on July 4th 2012 http://www.flickr.com/photos/76984289@N04/7500935478/
Another one was a Metrolink on the 56 a day loan before being branded on March 18th 2010

There is a few more on top
So there is two examples of Breakdown in the Washington Area, and a Washington Based Bus covering for another Depots Service. There is a few more on top of these examples.
With constant problems with the Wheyaye50 over past year or so in terms of reliability, I still think maybe some of the Omnicitys off the Coaster may go on the 50, despite everyone saying it is a re-brand of the Service. I can't really see GNE continuing to let this issue go on and on for much longer.
