The B9TLs are already dying a slow death, and they're not even 5 years old.I feel the X9/X10 needs some form of low floor coach, like what is used on the Oxford Tube. Could probably get 10 years out of them on there before they need replacing where they could then possibly be sold on or keep them for school contracts. Unsure what you'd have as spares though.
Think performance wise the MetroDecker is better than the StreetDeck although I am unsure if it would be a better buy long-term though.
