Optare quoting June for delivery, but might come sooner.
A third similar bus has been ordered for the CLS Town Service, which will act as the spare, although the contract allows a Euro 5 bus to be used in the event that Euro 6 aren't available.

8 for the Blue Arrow
4? for the 19
leaves 1 spare
------------
however, i think the Eclipses will stay on the 19 and:
8 on Blue Arrow
1 to Stanley
Rest will stay be split as spares.
With 4 to Washington
= 17

It also depends, if the 6/X70/X71 get the ex London B9's, then the X30/X31 keep the Omnicities, they'll be more Omnicities spare, which could move on the 19.

Will Deptford gain at least 1 extra Citaro from Washington?
The Volvo B7RLE are remaining at Percy Main for the 19.
