Ah good, that keeps things simple that they have this a regular route. I doubt I could track it down, but to complete the picture where is 4663 nowadays?

4663 is also at Durham but it isn't leather seated.

Thanks for warning me Kuyoyo. If I suddenly see 4663 at Middlesbrough on route X1 (that is, if this is a Durham route) I know not to board it!

If you do spot it in Middlesbrough on the X1, you'd be very lucky considering Durham's X1 workings are supposed to be entirely Gemini worked these days with Pulsars being the main alternative single decker choice if deckers are in short supply.

Centro 1924 is reportedly on its way to Whitby on the 5 at this present moment, on the working that runs off the 28/30.

Changes to the evening work takes effect today, and results in the following changes:

The vehicle that starts the day on the 6 now runs back to the depot after its last run arrives back in Stockton at 1725.
The retimed 1745 28 (which until Saturday ran at 1737 and worked ofd the 6) now works off the 28 that arrives from Lingdale at 1740.
The evening 27 trips are now back on a daytime 27 working for the first time since the July 2012 service changes.
The North Skelton-finishing 5b duty now works off a 5.

It is a bit irritating that the Arrivabus website is still updating the east Cleveland map. It occurs to me that I can write a list of routes serving key centres like Middlesbrough, Guisborough, Loftus, Saltburn and Redcar, then look up frequencies and journey lengths on connecting routes.

I rode an EcoCity in Runcorn yesterday and liked the seating. This will alleviate part of the disappointment of their non-operation in Darlington on Sundays.

Apart from the 20/X20 and X15/X18, all Ashington depot services are now included in the new Northumbrian Low Floor Guarantee scheme.

The map will likely not be updated until the autumn when there are planned service changes in the East Cleveland area.

I would think the 30 and 34 are excluded from the scheme, too! - There seems to be a Olympian on there every week.

Not sure, the 100 does but that only runs on college days.

No Stagecoach services serve the Airport either, only pass on the main road. Just Go North East serve the Airport.
