Looking at the fleet list there 14 Volvo B7TL Presidents, 1 Dennis Trident President and 10 Volvo B7TL Vykings remaining in the fleet. This would leave 5 B9's from London remaining available to replace 5 Omnidekkas, plus if the Volvo B7TL Geminis are to become available for cascade to replace older deckers in the fleet as a result of the B9's entering service at Washington and Chester for example, then this would allow further Omnidekkas to be withdrawn.
In theory all the Volvo B7TL Geminis will be available for cascade once the B9's from London and Angel StreetDecks have entered service, so I may not be far off with the above.
10 B9's to Riverside to replace Vykings
8 B9's to Percy Main replacing Presidents - 1 Omnidekka from Percy Main to Stanley replacing 3889
9 B9's to Chester replacing Presidents + 2 B7 Geminis
3 B9's to Washington replacing B7 Geminis
7 Volvo B7TL Geminis to Stanley replacing 7 Omnidekkas at Stanley - (Note there are 7 Toon Link Branded Examples)
