March 24th will also see the start of a new X93/93 timetable I am told. Although no details available yet.
Does this mean that the leather-seated OmniCities are departing the Middlesbrough area? They could be effective buses for the X66!
Nope. The leather seated OmniCitys are used by Stockton on the 5. Whitby/Redcar operate the 93/X93 therefore it's their OmniCitys moving to Darlington.

Thank you for your immediate clarification Kuyoyo. The first word that entered my head was Whoops! In 2010 I rode route 93 from Scarborough to Whitby and it was an OmniCity, I think with green seating. It was bursting at the seems being the August Bank Holiday Saturday so the double-deckers will be welcome. I'm sure I rode an Olympian from Whitby to Middlesbrough the August Bank Holiday Sunday in 1998.

Pulsar 1454 is on one of Stockton's X1/X2 workings. 'Firth Moor Flyer' Solo 2829 made an appearance on the X66 this afternoon replacing 4656.

4091 is now in service at Redcar, fitted with the now repaired Flip Dot screen out of 4003
2829 on the X66

OmniCity 4662 was used on a trip on the X1/X2 today, while Stockton played a Whitby with one of its 5 working being Prestige 4042.
RE: Arriva North East - kuyoyo - 01/02/2013 21:48
Very nasty working from Ashington today in the form of MPD 1790 on the X21!
From yesterday:
4662 on the X1
4042 on the 5
1767 on the X66 (1705 was on tonight)
1454 on the 7

Stockton were using Durham Solo 2812 on the X1/X2 today after 4042 broke down.

Saw 1202 leaving Haymarket today on 685 service at about 1345. I thought R-reg batch had all been taken off the road!
