I would say that is debatable, I erm Haymarket/Eldon Square, Park Lane, Hebburn & Jarrow on a repeat cycle every week is not really broadening your horizons much now is it.

I know your taking the piss but this whole 'dumb' thing is really starting annoy me.  

And as stated last week, if going to Carlisle, Berwick, York, Hexham, Scarbourgh, Whitby isn't going further afield then what is?

I wouldn't let it get to you, Lee. The fact that the definition of the term ''Malarkey'' is: meaningless talk, nonsense, says something to me.

Aye, I get it e-mailed and I usually post it while on my morning cup of tea break - saves the arguments about who can and can't post it on here... Been in a meeting all morning today though, so couldn't oblige on this occasion!

Trident 3869 is on loan to Washington from Chester-le-Street.

6133 is being MOT'd this week and will be branded at the weekend.

Watch out for demonstrators coming soon.

What is 6133 being branded as? - I'm guessing possibly "Diamond" due to it being painted Orange.

It's going to carry a promotional livery for Metro Radio

It was not used and is back at Chester-le-Street.

Surprised by that, would of thought it was on the X1 with the amount of odd allocations Washington Depot have had Today.

It is also painted pink at the rear. As tom said at the top of this forum page, it will gain a promotional livery for Metroradio.

On the fleet allocation document, the mistake regarding 3861 being placed into the withdrawn segment rather than 3862 has been corrected.

It was definitely used at Washington. Passing my house on Scholars service 805 around half 3.
