The ex-London B9s are still fairly new to the fleet themselves, and have just been awarded funding from Gateshead Council to have an SCRT fitted to upgrade them to Euro 6. I wouldn't expect these to leave the fleet any time soon...

What other buses will get this treatment, as they were rewarded for:
Newcastle - £379,600 - 23 buses
Gateshead - £230,750 - 13 buses - would imagine these are: 6149-6161.
South Tyneside - £133,952 - 8 buses - No idea
My guess:
Newcastle - Quaylink Versa's, there's 23 of them - plus, the Versa's will go for a refurbishment in the next 2 years.
Gateshead - 13 buses - 6149-6161.
South Tyneside - £133,952 - 8 buses - No idea
