Just saw its back end leaving as we came in on the angel. ( which of course meant that we'd missed our own bus!)

I'd guess Jesmond are using a lot more singles to free up deckers for Metro Replacement

Note the thumbs up from the passenger upstairs, although it's not the easiest to see in this photo.

Looks like she is trying to hide too. 

Lets hope no Lowlander or owt else is on the X12 as a result. I am aware that Belmont have a spare MAX decker due to the 2 boards transferring to Stockton too.

1799 on X66....

What a stupid allocation.

Just wait until Darlington get our other scanias, then none of this will happen

Haha I dunno about that as they'll have the same amount of extra boards to cover

(08 Aug 2015, 5:51 pm)GX03 SVC wrote What a stupid allocation.

The majority of the odd allocations of 1799 happen due to it being the spare bus at Feethams regularly.

Until today the spare bus was 1799 at one point, 4655 when 1799 replaced it on the X66, then 7534 after 4655 replaced that on the 7

Haha true, how many scanias do you's have Scott?

Just the three, 4652/4/8 - I understand it will be three of the (former) X1 Pulsars coming the other way.

Changed their mind on MAX-ing them for the X75/6 then?

Generic Frequenta Solo 2851 is operating the X66/X26 today.

Think engineering want all the Scanias in one place rather than having 3 on their own at Stockton. Unsure what that means for Jesmonds 4 though?!

Or the two at Ashington?

Yes quite.... Those would ideally be replaced with double decks I suppose and could then be used to bolster the MAX fleet at Darlington, potentially freeing up 1416 for another project elsewhere.
All academic though until we have enough vehicles to cover all of our MAX projects!

Just a question how many running boards do the 1/5/5A/19 have in Darlington would it be possible to send the scanias from up north to Darlington and MAX that service
