The biggest point of note is the re-allocation of the tri-axle Scania coaches to Hexham Depot, following the successful trial of 7100 earlier this year. 7098/99 will remain as 53-seaters (replacing 7080/82), while 7100-7102 will all undergo 69-seat conversion (replacing 7087/90/92).
Couple of questions regarding the coaches. Firstly, are 7095 and 7097 remaining as part of the Coaching Fleet? (and if so why as opposed to two with consecutive fleet numbers?) Secondly, what will happen to 7094 and 7096 (and possibly 7095/7)? And thirdly will the current coaches at Hexham return to the Training fleet to replace the Cadets or be disposed of??
Thanks, Peter
