(04 Apr 2024, 7:12 pm)Mike_98 When they get time, I'm sure they will do them. Personally I don't see the point in doing it unless they are going to get a full repaint and interior rework to the new Journey Mark. It could also be a hint they may be getting transferred in the future but I would doubt it.
Apparently 1438 was meant to return a week or 2 ago but still not seen as of yet. Also 4711 has yet to return since January. Redcar are slowly recovering still but there is still missing services happening.

(04 Apr 2024, 9:18 pm)tyresmoke There’s several buses not tracking properly… 4713, 4719 at least in recent days!
1438 was at DTbus in Brandon and seen around the Durham area today, possibly heading home?

Well I imagine if a lot of people that were travelling to Whitby and Scarborough from Middlesbrough today won't be happy. 3 Single Deckers serving the X93 today including one Temsa 4723 and another 2 single decks serving the X94. Shocking for a weekend. Does anyone know what problems Redcars B9's suffer because they seem to be out in service for around 4 days then sit out for like 3 days?

(06 Apr 2024, 4:32 pm)RobinHood Two deckers covering on P&R today, as both the Gemini's are currently off the road for inspection defects overnight, which is not something that can be foreseen.
1 of the double deckers is still in Ashington and two of the B9s are still off for long term reasons.
They are doing everything they can with the vehicles they have available.

(06 Apr 2024, 5:33 pm)Mike_98 Yeh true. However, I would personally cut off some 63's and put the drivers in single deckers in tandem with another to have 2 single deckers on the same trip so that they have double decker capacity.
Also which decker is at Ashington?

(06 Apr 2024, 5:47 pm)Storx Disagree with that mind, the 63 is one of Arriva's flagship routes, having a 30 minute service is complete unacceptable to bail out the X93 (again).

(06 Apr 2024, 6:45 pm)Storx To be honest I'm surprised the 62 still exists personally since it got curtailed at Redcar, the X2/X3 seem to be really struggling, could easily send them via the 62 route out of Redcar and along Trunk Road, Grangetown being omitted.62 seves the other side of Dormanstown its the only bus that side gets as its a bit of a Waik for the older residents who struggle Waik long distances
South Bank and Normanby Road probably deserve/need the 15 minute

(06 Apr 2024, 6:45 pm)Storx I wouldn't want anything else added to X2/3. They are meant to be express.

(10 Apr 2024, 9:59 am)Mike_98 7424 Seems to be back and tracking on the 62. I know the ALX’s are actually still sat in Redcar Depot. Surprised they haven’t gone yet.
