I think Bazza potentially is onto something, if there's spare Citaro's, they could go on the 57 as it's the only branded service still using B10s.
They'll need replacing sooner rather than later I should think.

Do you even use these routes on a non-leisure basis?
The 19 needs something other than OmniCities, as the 4 branded ones are constantly off road, resulting in red/Northern OmniCities/DD Renowns being allocated.

Couple of other services with 5 PVR:
28/28A
34/34A
X25
I hope we get them on the 28/28A. I can't see it happening though.

Oh aye, forgot about that, take it off the list.

5 Citaros - X35 has a PVR of 7.

Could include the 2 spares at Stanley... we don't know if they'll be repainted yet.

Citaros or other vehicles are always replacing renowns (branded ones at least somewhere) example
43/44 had Diamonds originally they got Citaros
27 had Renowns they got Citaros
57 might be a possibility?
Ominicity replaced what is now on 11/31/32
47 got replaced by deckers
8/8A/78/78A got streetlites
don't know if I have missed a post, but what citarios are we talking about?, as there still the silver citarios not been branded yet that are usually on service 61 when the red scanias and red deckers are not on there, it seems the the silver mercs are in limbo at present with no branding.

Stanley's 5293-7 - given Dan confirmed on
his photo of 5290 last night that only 5284-92 would be used on the 16/16A.
Total stab in the dark :-
5293-97 to Riverside for NEW 12/12A.
2 Toonlink Omnicity to Stanley for X30/X31.
7 Toonlink Omnicity stay at Riverside for revised 11/96.
Wonder if the 12/12A could be branded Blaydon Racers?

Any idea on what you would brand the 12/12A?
5293 is now signal blue.

Ah right, thought it might have been Blaydon Racers.
Maybe they won't be going on there then.

Maybe, but it would be daft to have 2 different colours for the brand, although it would be easier for the passengers to notice the difference between the services within the brand.
After doing a quick google search. Signal blue is very close (if not the same) as the Fab 57 blue.

Citaro's to the 57 - confirmed?
Going back to my predictions... seems the 30 will be solo sr and not citaros.... haha

It was leaked on to Flickr from someone who knows a driver or something like that, the picture looked genuine and was up on a board.. i think this was at Saltmeadows, this will be the new brand for the 6/X70/X71 (think someone said they are interworking?).... not confirmed if its allocated B9's... this might of being used instead of something else.... i think the services will be allocated Omnidekka's for the time being.
They were posted on Flickr but they have being removed although they haven't being removed from the forum yet.
6 WILL interwork with X70/X71, service to be operated by ommidekkas NOT B9s
