A few odd workings today.
3864 and 3888 were on the X25,
512 and 5227 ended up on the 27.

On another note, 3970 is another ELC Myllennium Vyking in Northern livery.

ex-Go North East MPD W869 YNB (now with Peoplesbus) has been refurbished and painted into a new livery. It looks really smart.

3869 and 3880 have now swapped (3869 going to Chester-le-Street and 3880 coming to Percy Main)

Does anyone know why Lolynes are swapping for Lolynes?
