(03 May 2016, 2:17 pm)Tom The Homesense E400 has moved to Walkergate it seemed - has been on the 22 today.

I think it's a different E400, it is now 19217, I'm sure the other one was 19153, or something like that.

Hi Davie. I have just heard from a driver in South Shields that the two 22's and the two 34's are going some where else. What we are getting in return is 4 x 39's back from Sunderland. Is this true. Regards Robin

I won't be surprised if the upcoming service changes at Sunderland will allow the remaining "53/04-plate" darts to be withdrawn. I assume the reserve "34xxx" darts will most likely be replaced by "03-plate" MAN ALX300s and possibly one or two "56-plate" darts. I wouldn't be surprised if South Shields try to replace 22067/70 by the end of the year as well to make South Shields depot a 100% Enviro-Depot. 22067/70 are meant to be allocated to service X20 but very regularly end up on a difference route. For example 22070 was on the "E" services today.

Nothings been confirmed yet, Though 34611s time is most likely up in the summer ( 33401s too before you ask ) Though what replaces them is still not known.
Don't know how 22067 and 22070 will be replaced, As 03/53 Reg MANs will probably be displaced in the summer and a handful of 56 reg Darts.
Service X20 during the day requires a full size single deck, So 2 E300s will have to be sourced at the minimum to replace them.

Sunderland should lose:

22079-22082
34605
And one 09 Enviro.

Not confirmed though, just what I've heard.

(03 May 2016, 7:45 pm)Michael Sunderland should lose:

22079-22082
34605
And one 09 Enviro.

That 1 09 Enviro could replace 34611 without causing much confusion to the either E200s at Shields, Apart from a different gearbox.

34605 will be withdrawn probably

22079-22082 could go to Slatyford for the short term or permanent if there an older MANs that could be replaced after everything arrives.

I really doubt Darts will ever see service on Teesside since we don't need them, if any buses will replace the deckers (which could be likely) I'd be expecting more ALX300's.

Not sure, was just told it was a 09 reg, hopefully they've changed it so a NK58 will go instead.
