(09 Aug 2016, 7:14 pm)biglugs@yahoo.com Although already asked what will replace 3866,67 even though there is 4 month i dont know weather the following could happen
4x new buses for 327 this will allow 3866,67 to be withdrawn and 3890,1 to replace plaxton presidents.
2x omnidekkas allowing 3876,7 to be withdrawn
Im not sure if GNE have a plan for them but i think its a shame they dont meet dda.
Could GNE make them DDA complaint alike the B10S?
I think it's more likely that stock from Brighton & Hove will release Dennis Tridents from Stanley to Percy Main similar to the existing allocation.

No.
6034 was only a float/reserve vehicle at Percy Main (covering for 6104 which was having the GKN flywheel removed).
It stayed for a few weeks longer, but has now been released to Chester-le-Street (temporarily forming part of the allocation here), allowing 3983 to transfer to Riverside, which will allow a further Volvo B10BLE to be withdrawn later this month after the Blyth Tall Ships event.
3974 was the Vyking on service 1 yesterday and I believe it covered one journey due to a breakdown/incident.
