1201-4 have been sold, but are still in use at the minute.

1202 has been the only R reg I have seen in Brampton on the 685 this year. Usual vehicles are V reg coaches now, one branded coast and castles (1212?) and today a W reg service bus.

1210 I believe is the one still branded for Coast & Castles.
1202 is indeed the only one in use, I believe 1203/4 have left the fleet, 1201 was at Jesmond until a week or so ago when it disappeared!

1212 is the Coast & Castles branded one, indeed the only one left in the original livery as well.

An unusual working today was MPD 1775 on the X10 Newcastle to Blyth-this route is normally served by Pulsar's and Gemini's.

Noted both 1212 and 1213 out on Jesmond service 306 this afternoon. 1212 in Coast & Castles livery. One coach on this service is quite common but two seemed a little unusual ?
