- 6001 to 6007 to Crook alongside 3943 as a spare.
- 6049(T) to Riverside as a TTX spare. Can be used on TEN if not needed.
- 6050 to Riverside as a TEN / Red Kite spare.
- 6051 to Hexham as a TEN spare.
- 6052 / 6053 to Percy Main as Cobalt spares. Alongside 6117, these can be used in the afternoons if available.
- 6054 / 6055 to Chester, fitted with GKN tech and become part of the Angel PVR.
- 6084 (T) becomes a permanant fixture on the TEN and branded up.
- 3962 / 3965 become dedicated spares for the Angel.
- 3941, 3942, 3963, 3964 go to Percy Main for DFDS work repacing 2x non DDA compiant Lolynes and the Presidents can be used elsewhere.

I can see what you are trying to do - having 6084 on the TEN and 6054/6055 on the Angel would 'match' with 6071-6083 and 6056-6070 but it just isn't logical to put a younger vehicle on the TEN permanently but have an older vehicle replace it as the TEN and TTX spare...you'd be far better off breaking what you are trying to do and have both 6049 and 6084 as corporate spares with one of 6052 or 6053 becoming being repainted and branded as TEN. The Cobalt Clipper does not need 3 spare vehicles.
