It did just one trip on the 58 before being removed, given its shouldn't have been send out in the first place given it retains Busways Legals.

It can if it displays an 'On Hire' notice in the windowscreen.

Was quickly thrown out into service, with only a 'Cleveland Transit' Operation Disc. Was just to get an Olympian off for Macmillans. It may also be that, it shouldn't have gone out because it's only here for storage. It did, however, only turn up here earlier today.
Part of our fleet now, was thrown out as a quick changeover for a decker unfortunately not prepped for service here. The legals were getting changed tonight

So we're back to 4 B10BLEs. I think it was replaced by 22013, not entirely sure but can't entirely remember (or work it out either).
21143 is on the 13 today, along with 24112. 21144 is on the 12/14/34.
37-branded 22061 is on the 59/61. Due to flooding on both routes (Browns Bridge on the 59 route and now Oxbridge Roundabout on the 61 route), both routes are being diverted. In addition, the 36/37/38 have all be diverted via the A66 between Thornaby Station and Newport Road due to Stockton Road by the Total Fitness gym being flooded.
More Teesside diversions now:
The 36 and 52 are operating via Norton High Street and Crooksbarn to Billingham Beck due to the roundabouts at Beaconfield Bank bottom and Billingham Bank Bottom both being flooded, as such the 36 may likely not be servicing Billingham Green.
Greys Road in Grangesfield is now closed, meaning the 59 will be further diverted
Durham Road is now also closed, fortunately after the 58 has finished

Update on the points in bold in the quote:
Grays Road is closed by the police, however the evening 59 vehicle is actually stuck on the road
Durham Road isn't closed but there's reports of the bit under the railway bridge being underwater
It's looking more and more likely that we may see a reduced or no service on Teesside tomorrow, all depends on the condition of the roads in the morning (but considering the first buses leave the depot at half 4 in the morning to do staff pick-ups, and the rain here is currently forecast to contiune until about 2 in the morning, it's gonna be a big case of only finding out in the morning).
