(21 Feb 2016, 3:45 pm)Michael Dan said that 6038 will remain at Crook as a spare.
I also thought the Pronto B7's could be withdrawn temporally to be repainted as it seems the best idea, as they won't be needed straight away.
Not sure what the Pronto B7's will replace.
To be fair, although an extra decent spare would be beneficial to the Pronto, people have got to remember that the full route (Bishop Auckland to Newcastle) runs only up to every 30 minutes Monday to Saturday daytime with no evening and Sunday journeys. If the need was to arise for a more suited spare, then perhaps an Omnidekka or such could be moved over at such time needed.
