RE: Arriva North East
Interurban Solo, YJ58CAU, was on the X19 today. It appears that the X19 is Solo worked. Three or four people on board today at Heworth.

Ok - Cheers! - Do you know where the W-PNT, W-RNP, Y-BGB and SA-MYT ones are, or are they even still in service?

They are at Darlington. 1798 (SA52 MYT) should last a while longer than its Darlington sisters (bar 1772) given its age suggests it may transfer north in November, depending on what the PVR reduction is from the County Durham Changes.

Right, thanks

Sorry, last two things! I saw there is still an Olympian at Darlington, is that on the X66 every day? I heard you mention a hospital link solo on the X66. Is that rare? Also, am I likely to get a MPD 1798 or something or a R-COO dart on the service?

7365 is still at Darlington and is now a regular on the X6 alongside the OmniCitys (4647/54/6/7). That is indeed rare, and will now be even rarer as it may only happen on a Sunday (X66 interwork with 75s on Sundays and are Solo-Operated). Sadly, not now the OmniCitys are at Darlington.

Oh well! - It would be nice if I did get something rare on the X66! Cheers

RE: Arriva North East
You do realise the County Durham changes will see an increase in PVR for Durham depot considering the 6, 43 and the 49's are being increased in frequency. Alongside the addition of the 46 back to Crook. Then an improved Peterlee Network with a combined 15 minute service from Durham to Peterlee, Peterlee to Sunderland and Peterlee to Hartlepool. Then there's a 10 minute frequency between Coxhoe and Durham to be provided by the 56, 57 and X1. So the PVR is easily going to increase rather than decrease for Durham depot at least anyway.
