Yes, we're now re-using the Vecta numbers.

Ahh ok, I thought so. Also, since when was 4056 at Stockton? It was on the X1 on Wednesday.

4056 has been at Stockton for about 4 weeks or so now, the second of the three Prestiges transferred in recently.

Another Pulsar delivered to Jesmond is 1501 (NK12 FLN)

Yes, runs Sundays only. I doubt bikes are allowed on-board.

A late reflection of my holiday in the area was that the coach on route 685 had not been refurbished but was still comfortable. So my unfinished business within Arriva North East is a refurbished coach, potentially on route X4, a Temsa Avenue and leather-seated Scania OmniCity. I have not travelled to Saltburn or Bishop Auckland by train, and have discovered a DalesBus connection from Darlington to Lancaster via Hawes. I may like to combine these with a Jet2 flight from Newcastle to Cork and a tour of southern Ireland. In practice, I would probably do this seperately, maybe with forthcoming Newcastle-area Hybrids.

The refurbished Coaches are currently used on the X66.

Pulsar 1503 (NK12 FLN) is now parked in Jesmond depot.
