Dart SLF 1307 has moved from Ashington to Darlington, today on the X66.

MPDs 1715/21/22/27/34/35/41 (V715/21/2/7/34/5/41 DNL) are all now due for withdrawal. 1727 has already been replaced at Stockton by Prestige 4052 from Darlington. 1734 has managed to get a stay of execution to operate the 16 shuttle for at least one month.

MPD 1739 yesterday lost its front registration plate. Giving Redcar depot credit, once it was pointed out to the driver, he rang the depot and returned out of service to the depot, presumably to change vehicles.

Just seen anothe trident 400 in a classic united livery but unlike the other one it's half arriva half united. The bus also has a giant zip on it to symbolise the change between arriva and united

That is Volvo B7TL/Alexander Dennis ALX400 7445. And having just seen a photo of it, unlike 7446, they have made a right old hash of the Arriva liveried half of the vehicle!
