Yes most them have been on since they were New, Others were Cascaded over from West Durham Swift in 2012 possibly early 2013, when there was a Frequency Increase/Or Route Extension on those Services.

Pretty sure the Omnis at Chester were swapped with Tridents from Percy Main for the Coaster.

I am sure the remaining Omnis came from Stanley's West Durham Swift batch.

After their stint on the 21, they did, replacing the lolynes, along with 5251 and 5252 from the Cobalt Clipper.

A few photographs on my Flickr of vehicles entering Gateshead/Winlaton depot for the final time from this evening.
Shot of the night, albeit a rather poor quality image, is shown below - with 4917 coming out of the bus wash at Winlaton depot:

All photographs were taken from outside the depot premises.

They never had that problem when the mk1 Nationals did the route!
Kids squashed onto the windscreen and falling out when the door opened, but never the low bridge warnings Wink
