(23 Jul 2017, 2:50 pm)peter Ah yes! I'd forgotten about 1512!! Perhaps then only the 12 mentioned above will transfer across!
I wonder if it will only be double-deckers withdrawn or whether 4516-8/20-21/23 will go instead (4519 has now been withdrawn hence why I haven't included it). They could potentially withdraw the vast majority of the remaining ALX400s, excluding the couple at Blyth.
On the topic of the 52/3/4. Is anything happening with regard to the new allocation of Streetlites? There are currently 9 in service at Jesmond yet the PVR of the services is 11. Perhaps it would make sense to transfer the two on the 35 to provide a full allocation - I believe at one point they were going to go MAX but with the new livery etc I doubt that'll be happening now! Similarly it would have been nice to see the X21 and X22 to Peterlee go MAX and then they could have finished the programme there.
