Newcastle Clean Air Zone: services which need to be upgraded
Newcastle Clean Air Zone: services which need to be upgraded
(12 Nov 2022, 4:25 pm)Dan The Metro Replacement contract releases 27 Euro 6 double-decks back into the main fleet, and GNE are taking additional buses from London on top of this.Really the issue is going to be Euro 6 spares which are upto the spec which the usual buses should have.
Washington have enough single-decks to run the 25 and 28/29 without issue, they just need to allocate the correct buses.
Riverside and Percy Main probably are a bit thin on the ground on Euro 6 double-deck spares at the moment (though this was to be expected as 3941-43/62-65 were used for the Metro Replacement contract due to late delivery of the buses from London), but the ex-London Volvo B9s will assist with this.
