One of the St Helens ones (4599) has been sighted after refurbishment carrying Northumbria legal lettering, and fleetnumber 7402..................however B9TL 7402 is also there for refurb, so it seems a mistake has been made and 4599 is likely to be off to Speke in 3 weeks along with most, if not all the current St Helens E400's
i had been told that Speke was its likely destination.
Thanks for that.

Service changes from 27th September in Redcar & East Cleveland:
Following feedback from our customers and local stakeholders, we are making a small number of service changes from Sunday 27 September 2026.

Service 28 – Middlesbrough to Marske Estate
To better support college students and people travelling to work in Redcar, we are adding two new Monday to Friday journeys:

07:50 – Guisborough, Rosedale Crescent to Redcar High Street, arriving at 08:41.
16:00 – Marske Estate to Guisborough, Rosedale Crescent, via Redcar Clock at 16:25.

And 1385 is on loan from Stockton to Darlington covering 2710. Three way swap. 3002 is there for driver familiarisation to start ahead of Stockton taking delivery of their own Enviros shortly.
Most of the Kites that were stored at Stockton & Redcar have migrated over to Darlington suggesting entry to service might not be far off

Darlington entry to service is scheduled for end of September.

Driver familiarisation has started.

A diesel generator is currently being used to charge the one bus in use for training, and Northern Powergrid have started the final work to connect the chargers to the grid.
