It's part of a £10m investment into new buses this financial year, with further buses hopefully coming too.
This may of already been mentioned so my apologies in advance..
Above.. Dan confirmed a total of 21 Streetlites have been purchased, Ten for Durham Diamond and eleven for services 49/49A.
Is there a hint there that the 49/49A are No Longer "Blaydon Racers" since it was detailed as the route number rather than brand. Also the Streetlites that seem to be arriving are in either Durham Diamond colours or in the New GNE corporate livery. Also the fleet lists state that the next ones On Delivery are also Blue & Red colour.
Unless of course the "Blaydon Racers" are going to be given an updated brand look, which seems similar in colours to corporate brand.
