So three hours from cutting out to arriving back at the depot. Think that shows how poor the 54-reg MANs actually are, given 22063 is the best example.

I fail to see how the length of time it takes to recover a vehicle corresponds to the 'crapness' (or not) of said vehicle, or even the severity of the failure....

Volvo B10BLE 21155 was on 62/63 yesterday (15:00 from N Walbottle)
Volvo B10BLE 21101 was on X63 yesterday (X63 Killi Express stickers covering blind).

First one - very rare, unusual to see anything but Enviro400s on Walkergate's workings (Slatyford's are a different matter however)
21101 has been like that since about its third day back in service. I understand its Dot Matrix was removed for Training Purposes.

21104 replaced 22455 on the 38, unless it was taken off in Middlesbrough, it will be on the 610 atm.

Monday
16832 on the 36
21104 on the last Middlesbrough-terminating 38 trip, which works onto the 610 however it's not known if 21104 did work onto that or not

21144 was parked in the 'dead row' in the depot between the B10M trainers. 21150 was on the 11, 21104/41/2 were all on the 59/61.

22062 on the 52
24102 after completing its 38 run

You still haven't answered how the amount of time it takes to recover a vehicle relates to the state of said vehicle....

Because you've mis-read my original post. The amount of time has noting to do with it - the fact it cut out in the first place when it is said to be the 'best' of the 6 2004 MANs at Stockton shows how bad the batch is.


RE: Stagecoach North East - mbonwick - 19/10/2012 20:44

Everything breaks at some point. I challenge you to name a vehicles that has never ever had a failure of some sort.....


RE: Stagecoach North East - tyresmoke - 19/10/2012 21:48

Water getting to EDC thereby shutting off injectors is what I was told, got towed back to depot eventually.
