(20 Mar 2019, 7:35 am)Michael Maybe, only other bus is Scania L94's or even the duel door B9's.

The changes for 7th April, haven't appeared on the GNE site yet either.

Indeed. Everything else would have to only be a temporary measure and, as I say, from a mechanical perspective, i would think that it would be easier just to keep the 4 Omnis until then.

Vehicle type that has been with the depot non-stop since 2007 vs. one that has never been based out of that depot before outside of a loan (Solar/Versa - i withdrew the idea of Citaros straight away) is my logic for that one.

In terms of a lack of publication, it is unusual given the changes are now just 2.5 weeks away and the average notification period is 4 weeks. Perhaps they want to avoid advertising two sets of changes at the same time? They will have a plan.

Yep. Recipe for disaster having two sets going at the same time, and given how minor the Stanley/Consett changes are, there's no massive need to get them out prior to the service changes happening in North Tyneside.

Thank you in advance.

From memory, in the past, spare buses of the same standard usually get the internal refurb similar to the branded examples, would imagine they will both be repainted into the new corp livery, but that's just a guess.
