(19 May 2019, 9:09 am)Dan 6100 will be the same-specification spare for the Cobalt & Coast, with 6101-17 all being branded as part of the PVR which is now 17.
The Fab56 PVR has reduced by one, but given there were several 'unbranded' Volvo B9 anyway, it meant that one of the spares could be sent away. 6086 and 6099 will be the spare buses for the 56 going forward, with 6085 forming part of the PVR of the 56 (as it did previously).
(19 May 2019, 9:03 am)Dan For now, two of the Blue Arrow OmniCitys (which will be repainted in the new fleet livery), and Percy Main retain 6069 as a spare for the 14 Coaster branded examples. Longer-term there will be a plan for two double-decks to join Percy Main, one of which will be PVR and the other will be spare (and 6069 will be repainted and branded for Coaster).
The 40/41/42 should be allocated Solo SRs, the 11 should be allocated the older 10-plate Solos, and the 19 should be allocated two Solos too.
