Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - April 2017

1405 was allocated to the 5/5A from the run out this was due to two Streetlites being VOR 

1444 replaced 1559 due to an ABS problem


Should never have got rid of 1512.

First day of the Redcar X93s yesterday. 7424 and 7426. 7424 broke down before reaching Whitby and was eventually towed back and replaced by 1434. Doesn't bode well!

Traffic heading into Darlington is almost back all the way to Coatham Mundeville when I passed a few minutes ago on the 7.

Noticed a fair few buses going round with extra staff on this afternoon looking to be giving instructions/"directions etc. Driver I had on the 5 into Darlington had stop at the stop before Hitachi and had to ask the passengers if he turns right or goes straight on at the roundabout [emoji1]

Aye, it's pretty slow going. Have an horrible feeling we're going to miss the 16:42 22 even though we turned up at tubwell row for the 7 at just after 3.

I feel sorry for people who need access to the side roads. I know some of them have alternate rat runs, but not everyone and they'll be hell at rush hour, too.
