Yes, Redcar are getting quite a few interesting transfers in exchange for their StreetLites! Apparently one of the reasons behind this transfer, was that one of the engineering managers at Stockton Depot has previous expertise from working at Wrightbus, and as such to standardise the fleet a little more they've moved the StreetLites across, with a batch of 2009 Pulsar 2s going in the opposite direction...
4719 has been off the road a few times for long periods of time. But I must say there is no way that this on Economy Mode driving like that. If it is still in economy mode that's actually insane but I wouldn't be surprised if this has been put back into performance mode. I just wish that all the Temsas were in Performance Mode and there would be no problem putting them on routes like the X3/X4 and X93. They used to be the norm on the X4 back in the day when they first arrived in Redcar. It is good that Redcar are getting 14 Pulsars and 6 Enviro 300's in exchange for the Lites. I wonder how the E300's will perform on steep routes like these. We will see.
@@centraltransportproductions Wouldn't be surprised if some are thrown on it in summer next year when I imagine the X94 will be back on due to passenger demand and the decker fleet being soo small and unreliable. I genuinely can't see the ALX's doing it again next year. Plus with all the Pulsars that will have acquired and the Enviro 300's, who knows. I also see them probably doing some swaps with Northumbria again in exchange for some Deckers. The 400MMCs did great on the X93. Once the Tax year hits too, the investment by the New American owners might start flowing in. Also nice recording of Skelton Green Bank and Lingdale Bank. No one really records going up them.
Bang on point with a cracking ZF in there too!
ZF my beloved
That ZF was so good 😎
First Temsa I think I've been on that has absolutely rocketed up some steep hills too...
Apparently the Redcar Streetlites are being transferred to Stockton in exchange for some Pulsars I believe

Best Temsa I've been on in quite a while, I'm sure it would manage well on the X93 minus the capacity issue...

4712 has the loudest gearbox. Sounds amazing and it performs well.
