(19 Nov 2021, 12:53 pm)peter Seems like a slightly odd move when they're not that old (comparatively). Are they being transferred elsewhere?

(19 Nov 2021, 8:27 pm)Ryland That seems like a great waste. They've not been with arriva long. There worse buses that need withdrawing first

Arriva North East Belmont based 1324 has moved to Darlington on loan
(20 Nov 2021, 9:53 pm)RobinHood They haven't been withdrawn, they are mothballed due to the continued reduced PVR. They might not return, especially if some of the reductions become permanent - however at the moment they are not dead.Could they not go to Ashington to see off 4664/53 plus a spare.

(21 Nov 2021, 10:25 am)Kuyoyo And what then takes their place at Stockton should the current service reductions end? I'm sure it was previously mentioned that 1408/11 would eventually replace the Omnicitys at Ashington, especially now the X16 has officially been withdrawn.

(09 Jan 2022, 7:58 pm)Storx I might be not 100% right here but Arriva cancelled an order of Streetdeck's that were destined towards Yorkshire due to issues with the terms after Wright went bust and were bought over by Bamford.There were 7 Arriva Sapphire spec street decks not delivered. Ensign Bus 161-167 are the vehicles in question.
As a result, buses that were meant to go elsewhere didn't happen, I'm assuming these are 2 of those. I believe there was a few more due.

(10 Jan 2022, 5:49 pm)Bazza So Arriva were actually investing in their fleet!
I don’t think it’s unreasonable that investment has been put on hold during the Pandemic and subsequent slow recovery.

(10 Jan 2022, 5:57 pm)Storx Thank you, thought it was 7 just wasn't sure. Wasn't sure where they went in the end.North West is now in the process of receiving delivery of StreetLite's and StreetDeck's too.
Yeah, they was a batch down South somewhere that got cancelled at the same time, Leicester way rings a bell for the LEZ which ended up being buses switched around to get past it instead. There was rumours for an order at Ashington aswell but that was rumours, nothing concrete on that.
They have made some investment in the last year as there's the 20 plate Tourismo's at Greenline which some are sitting around now since they cancelled half the routes and a batch of 71 plate Volvo B8RLE MCV Evora for Luton Airport. Not much but it's a start.
