Was already in fleet livery.

I think tyresmoke means from Arriva to Arriva Interurban livery

Was already in 'new' livery before that anyway - was painted into new livery while at Jesmond before it moved to Whitby.

Aye but it was supposed to be going orange for Sainsburys but clearly hasn't for some reason!
Also, 4059 is now in the yard at Stockton engine-less after donating its engine to 4054.

I believe the Sainsbury's vehicle was going to be 1759?

It is - Jesmond seem to have made a major cock-up.

Is 1759 in addition to 1719- repainted into orange last year for Sainsbury's service at Whitby-or a replacement for it?

It's going to replace it.

Update:

R458/9KWT are to be numbered 4097/8 with 4097 in the paintshop at the moment for a full repaint, 4095/6 are S475/7ANW and have moved straight to Redcar from Stockton for prep.
