Either 7453 or 7454 are back at their original home at ashington. Think it might be 7453 as that is not on the bus times fleet List and I think may get using machine ANE-SPDM last tracked on the 1st November. 7454 has not been tracked for 32 days (28th october).

1515 has had its Plug Sockets removed and replaced with USBs.

Hopefully this has been done following numerous complaints about how most of the Plugs weren't working, especially on the Redcar StreetLites where I never had a single journey where the plugs worked.

All split up then. I had 7558 on the X8 and it was amazing.
A lot better than the Gemini 2s & pulsar 2s on the X8. Wish Blyth were getting some.

What E400s are we getting off Yorkshire. I know we have Ex 1908 (7557), Ex 1909 (7558) & Ex 1911 (7559 or 7560?) . Is anymore coming or is it just the 3 we have.
