The vehicle off the daytime 6 runs goes onto the evening 27 trips
The 17c/64b now are one vehicle off the 17s and one off the 5
The 1815 X1 to Durham now works off the 27
All 631/632s now work off the 28/30s
The 627 no longer works off the 7, not sure what does work onto it instead

The first 627 journey (18:50 ex Swans Corner) operates off the back of a 28/30 board - which terminates at Swans Corner at 18:49. From 19:20 onwards, the 627 is worked by a vehicle that had been operating a 17 board.

The 18:15 X1 ex Middlesbrough operates off the back of a 5A board all week.

The last X6 ex Middlesbrough (18:40) is operated by a 17 board.

The first 27 (06:01 M-F) ex Netherfields is operated by a long 5 board. You are correct that the bus on Service 6 takes over from 18:20 onwards.

A long 5 board operates the 06:41 ex Guisborough M-F Service 28 - arriving in Middlesbrough at 07:40 and departing as a 5 to Whitby at 07:45. In comparison, the 06:48 Service 5 from Brotton Green Tree is a Redcar 63 board, arriving at the same time as the bus above in Middlesbrough (07:40). The reason for this is for driving time regulations - a single driver from SN could not complete the light trip to Brotton, back to Middlesbrough and a full Whitby and back without going over his/her hours.

The evening 5b journeys are operated by a vehicles off X1 and 28 boards.

You may see some changes to what is detailed as lots of these duties have their breaks at SN depot. Resulting in a selected vehicle being taken back out - rather than the allocated one! But the boards are the same as detailed above

Ah, got a bit mixed up about what does that evening X1 trip, last night it was 1492 and until I've just checked I thought it was on the 27s yesterday.

As for that long 5 (0745 from Middlesbrough), I was aware of that from Wednesday morning seeing two Pulsars turn up with 5 on the display. I only wish the Stockton one had come in with the 28 one, not something you see normally a Pulsar on the 28.
