(08 Jul 2020, 5:38 pm)Michael Defo, anyone got a picture of what they look like?
Gonna be interesting to see how they do in Eldon Square/Peterlee and Dalton Park!
What's the interior spec like on them? Do they have tables, sockets etc. like the current ones?
Thanks for the sharing information Dan
Can we keep them with that livery because it suits the coaches so well.
Looking forward to seeing them in X-Lines!
Edit:
Whats the capacity?, as its 7 coaches coming up, what will take the spare role?

(08 Jul 2020, 5:53 pm)Dan Tables, no - it's a coach.
Everything else, yes (and far more comfortable seats!)

Wonder if one can have an adventure on the X21 at some point, although that seems about as likely as getting an open top down there!

Do we have any interior pictures? Had a quick look about but couldn't see any
Might do a quick photoshop, see what the X-Lines livery would look like on them (presumably they'll keep the same style!)

(08 Jul 2020, 6:16 pm)busmanT PVR reduction or something else as a spare?Dont think they'd want a coach sitting around as I'm sure the coaches will cope much better than the current B5s, maybe keep a B5 as spare. Wonder if 4 of the current X9/X10 buses will end up on X5/X15?

(08 Jul 2020, 6:08 pm)mb134 Aye was about to say - nae chance GNE are launching Interdeck coaches onto one of their flagship routes with that livery.
Fantastic to see coaches on the X9/X10 now though - travel frequently on the Buchan Xpress batch operated by Stagecoach Bluebird and they've still got an enormous amount of power behind them. Their reliability is also pretty good, and the ride quality is second to none.
