- 13 + 1 spare for the Crusader (don't know the type but probably deckers).
- 12 + 2 spare deckers for Citylink with the Versas going on the Crusader.
- 14 new deckers for the Red Arrows with 2 Gemini's remaining as spares (1 of them does additional workings) owing to their provision of free Wi-Fi and NSA's.
I don't think it will be the Coaster because if it was, then they'd order either 1 or 2 spare vehicles on top.
my pennys worth is, the 14 new buses will go on the quaylink/X40 services, while the ex Deptford plain purple versas will go on the orbit for the extension to Newcastle via Q1 route, then the ex quaylink buses will go to Peterlee for East Durham services.
