Having been replaced in the fleet at Chester-le-Street by similar 5201 (NK54 NUU), this vehicle has transferred from Chester-le-Street Depot to Percy Main, in a float/reserve capacity. Alongside Scania L94UB/Wright Solar 5204 (NK54 NUX) and 5215 (NK54 NVL), this vehicle should be allocated to a Nexus Miscellaneous Works contract board, releasing a fleet livery Scania CN230UB/Scania Omnicity to operate one of three early-return boards on the "Coaster" 1 and "Cobalt Clipper" 309/310 services. These temporary allocations are as a result of the "Cobalt Clipper" branded Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodied Volvo B9TLs undergoing repaint and internal refurbishment at Bus & Coach World, Blackburn.
