Extra evening journeys are operational from now until Christmas on Mondays to Fridays, and an additional vehicle is being added to the cycle on Saturdays from October half-term until Christmas, aiming to provide a greater capacity following the withdrawal of the articulated Mercedes Citaros. This is on top of the ordinary extra vehicle added to the PVR on Saturdays.
Any idea what vehicle this will be?

Yes, the Saturday PVR until Christmas is 6.
Should be the four branded Streetlites allocated, then 5332 or 5389/90. The Versas may be allocated to the Quaylink to cover for a branded vehicle in the first instance; in which case, it'll likely be any red single decker at Riverside on the X66.
No additional vehicles are required for the Monday - Friday evening service: the Streetlites will just stay out to play for a little bit longer than usual for the extra journeys.
