However to keep depot standardisation would this mean that Hexham would need 6 Mercs / New Buses
4 x TynedaleXpress
1 x Tynedale Links
1 x Corporate Spare
Since both the Tynedale Links service 680 and Spare are also both Scanias.
Also very interested to see what's going to happen with the TEN and the possibility of Rebrand to Tyne Valley Ten, if this happens can we have a full set of branded vehicles for the route?
It certainly would be interesting. It's more interesting for me with the services up in Hexham because there's some great places to get some shots, particularly the X84/X85.
I can't really think of where the mercs (if so) are to come from. I do hope it's them as GNE have only recently purchased Streetlites for single deckers and I can't see them suiting a fast paced route like these.
