If Shields do indeed gain one, It'll be 39709, Due to it slotting in nicely with 39701/07/08 and also being a former Shields bus itself, So Maintenance already have a bit of knowledge on it.
Wouldn't be surprised if 39709 did go back to Shields.
Wonder if the rest of them will go to Newcastle to replace the MAN's or even to Stockton or Hartlepool.
