But.........does the 35 lose out at all, 3 B7TLs were destined for there.
I have no idea whether Arriva are now to receive Brand New Stock, I am mainly theorising based on the comments made by Tyresmoke. Vehicles are clearly still required to convert Durham services 46/48 to MAX Specification, whilst non-DDA compliant Double Deckers also need to be replaced. If the MAX refurbished ALX400 bodied Volvo B7TL's (or at least some of them) are to now be transferred elsewhere, presumably something else will need to replace them. Hence why I am guessing Brand New Stock may now be heading to Arriva North East.
