It's evened out a bit more now, under the service changes. Stanley are now covering a PVR of 14 with one spare Streetlite. Likewise Chester, a PVR of 13 with one spare Streetlite. On paper, it should reduce the chances of any vehicle besides a Streetlite being allocated to the Red Kite group of services. Downside of course is that the Coast & Country may throw up more vehicles besides a Streetlite.
I would anticipate that if 5401 is unavailable (or has already been allocated), Chester-le-Street would allocate whichever bus is spare out of 4934, 5201 or 5202, as these all have Wi-Fi for the Ushaw College service.
Thanks for the info Dan.
Apart from the buses we know what were moving around, has any corporate livery buses moved to (exact for 4935, which is part of the South Tyne PVR, and the Wright Eclipses)?
