Unusual working on Darlington service X66 today was 7520 (NK09FNG) along with 4056


RE: Arriva North East - kuyoyo - 24/06/2012 14:10

An unusual working yesterday was that of MPD 1768 on the 5/X6, having been swapped off the 21a for Prestige 4045.

Due to shortages at Redcar depot, there have been a number of loans so far this week:

Darlington's Dart SLF 1638 was on the 63 on Monday
Stockton's MPD 1755 was on the 22/71 yesterday
Darlington's Dart SLF 1612 is the current loan, having been on the 22/71 yesterday and the 63 today

1612 on the 63 on Wednesday

I believe most of the ex-Scotland West Dart SLFs are now in service, with 1301/11/14 at Durham, 1302-5/8-10/12 at Darlington and 1306/7 still at Ashington.

Ashington-based Enviro400 7505 has transferred to Redcar/Whitby depot for driver familisation and digital tachograph training ahead of the changes to the 93 (soon to be the X93 from full journeys) next Sunday. 3 more have also transferred.

In exchange, Redcar's Pulsar 1431 has transferred to Darlington displacing one of their Enviro400 (said to be 7519) to Ashington.


RE: Arriva North East - kuyoyo - 02/07/2012 13:58

A further Pulsar to move from Redcar to Darlington is 1432 (NK59 DNN), in service today on the 5/5a/35/36.

Does anyone know what busses have left Durham/Darlington's fleet since the Ex-arriva Scotland darts have entered service?

1745/6 have both departed for scrap, 1716 is also supposed to be withdrawn. 1708/13 likewise have been withdrawn. As for what has gone from Durham, I'm not too sure.


RE: Arriva North East - NK07 FZG - 02/07/2012 17:35

They replaced Solo's that were displaced to Jesmond for contracts apparently. Not sure which ones though, also with Prestiges, Lowlanders and 4664 out of use we are a bit short of vehicles. So perahps the Solo's will leave later when the other vehicles are all fixed since i'm not aware any have actually left yet.


RE: Arriva North East - kuyoyo - 02/07/2012 17:44

Well, Solo 2806/15 have already gone. Also, Presitge 4062 is currently being refurbished by Durham depot and is rumoured to be moving to Stockton once it's ready for service.
