Good to see 5 out of the 6 B9's out on the road today. We'll see how long that lasts though. Shame 7401 is still sat needing repaired.

(16 Jun 2024, 5:07 pm)RobinHood wrote It isn't permanent. 1429 is covering for 4711 on the official allocation. That is the more likely permanent replacement.
1404 will go back to Stockton, most likely in September.

(16 Jun 2024, 5:18 pm)Mike_98 wrote 1404 is the permanent transfer to replace 4711. 1429 was a part of the Streetlite swap in December. Unless 1404 is swapped for another Stockton pulsar which maybe likely as it’s a Max Spec it will be staying at Redcar. Then again who knows they switch things around all the time.

As I said, officially on paper and according to the company issued allocation,1429 is not permanently in Redcar fleet and is actually providing cover only.

Might aswell get every Solo in the fleet bar the 3 at Whitby to Ashington (again) they might actually be able to do a days service.I'm not a fan on them myself as for one at the back I always end up forgetting to duck as I'm.prity tall ??
There's no use for it at Redcar.

And the amount of vehicles currently off the road at Redcar is impacting some services. Especially when redcar and whitby are suffering with multiple breakdowns and certain vehicles restricted on what routes they go on

(15 Jul 2024, 2:27 pm)Mike_98 wrote Only 1 B9, 1 DB300 and 1 E400 MMC out today.
1433, 1436, 1440 and 4709 on the X93 today
1424, 1425 and 1447 on the X94
7609 and 7402 have both stopped tracking on the Park and Ride but I would imagine thats a system error. Seems like a lot of Deckers are having problems. Good job it hasn't been the best of summers the UK has had this year.
EDIT: 7609 seems to be back tracking
(15 Jul 2024, 5:25 pm)Mark66t wrote Seems to be tracking issues GPS signal must be slightly messing up again
4709 is absolutely bad on the x93 it's can't climb hills at all specially flyingthorpe 25%up hill it's proper slow
(16 Jul 2024, 12:50 pm)Mike_98 wrote Sometimes I don't understand Arrivas Allocations. Don't get me wrong it's always interesting to see a Temsa on the X4/X93/94 but when they have a decent amount of pulsars available, they throw them on 62/63 and 64's. 3 Temsas can handle the Whitby Routes fine but the ones today 4709 and 4718 are dreadful. Surely they would prioritize running on time.
Always seems to confuse me why they do it.
