Yep, changed to tie into the fact that they share a boardly similar route from Redcar Clock to Saltburn and Brotton (there's even now 3 morning runs that start at Brotton Green Tree using the vehicle that does the Saltburn shorts as they now don't start until 1000 from Redcar).
Sadly not, 269 was one of the early withdrawal of the remaining Scanias after its engine gave up the ghost. However, it's apparently still with Arriva North East, dumped with the last Vecta (1551) in Bishop Auckland depot. Stockton is now one of the few ANE depots to be a 100% low floor depot (apart for the borrow of 7452 yesterday, but that's what you get when you use Prestiges on the X1!)

Only regular high floor Arriva vehicles on Teesside now (apart from the Darlington Coaches, which may not be there for too much longer from what I've heard) are the remaining 4 Darts (1658/66/73/75) and 3007.

7452 yesterday - half an hour late at the time of this photo, blind was in the process of being changed to run light to Durham to pick up on the X2
After 1451 broke down at Dorman Museum, it was replaced on the 29 by Prestige 4007

MPDs 1753/70 have been on the X6 today in a like-for-like swap. 1770 has since gone onto 27/27a. 4051 is also on the 27/27a.
