Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2016

I'll certainly not be moaning if it ends up full Citaro allocated!

I've had second thoughts on them all heading for Deptford tbh, As any Scania's with Air-Pods on the roof will not be welcomed at Riverside as corporate spares -
Due to the 88/88A having a extremely low bridge which the Air-Pods cant pass under, While Citaro's or Omnicity's have a more streamlined Air-Pod which narrowly fits under but is legal, -
And with the 88/88A regulary requiring around 3 Corporate Spares per day now, Replacing older Solar's with younger ones with Air-Pods isn't a great idea.

Id suggest sending 2-3 Citaro's to Deptford for the 9 and 1 Corporate Spare, And the rest to Riverside to either displace other vehicles to the X5 ( Toonlink Omnicity's? ) plus 5337-8 which can withdraw two of either 4929-31,35 , While still being able to go under all low bridges which the depot runs under.

4932 and 4933 will not be as high priority to go I presume as there Euro 5, Due to being fitted with Eminox Mods a few years back.
