I did wonder why 1755 came along the High Street about 1530 after having the (unfortunate) pleasure of it earlier in the day. Was still leaning at the time, not sure what the problem is but I'd guess it's a suspension issue.

1755 replaced 4051 on the 21A after the throttle jammed open. Brown trousers moment... The 631/632 bus should have been 4043 but the driver nabbed 1755 off me when I got back to Boro as it had better demisters!

Ah, that's explains why it was heading along the High Street. I can understand taking a bus with better demisters, the Prestiges do seem to have very poor ones, evidence by the windscreen of 4037 on the last 6 tonight.

E Type 7261 M172 GRY is now working for Durham, I saw it on the 48 this morning.

Photo from Arriva North East's Facebook page to show the amount of disruptions today due to the floods
Expect more tomorrow.

Stockton service 6 will be subject to a long-term diversion due to the foundations of Browns Bridge being washed away in the floods, leaving the bridge in danger of collapse.

Volvo Olympian 7365 (R625 MNU) has transferred from Darlington to Jesmond, making its first appearance in service on the 45 today.
Infromation from the arrivane Yahoo Group
1213 is due to be released soon, with 4646 due to transfer to Darlington to enable the X66 to become enitrely OmniCity operated. Indeed, 4646 may already have transferred.

Not yet, followed it through Sedgefield on the X1 today. Also, 4036 was in Stockton depot yesterday, presumably up for test pre-move to Redcar

I wouldn't be so sure about 4646 going to Darlington, try 4644 and 4645, part of a number of moves this weekend - the major part of which sees Great Park services going Solo, with MPD's moving in return to Darlington.

4646 will be the one that moves to keep the X66 fleet uniform. Plus it has headrests so 4646 is better for longer distance.
