Yes, it should have already been withdrawn, so days most certainly numbered.

The end of the seasonal AD122 service ought to have led to the transfer of 635 to Washington to act as staff transport for the Metro Replacement contract. It wasn't ready for transfer (until yesterday), which is why 723 temporarily transferred instead. 635 is now at Washington, so 723 is back at Hexham as a result.

636 remains at Hexham to provide an extra vehicle while there are roadworks etc on routes operated by Hexham.

No, just one StreetDeck off the road today.

The StreetDecks are having to be used on scholars when OmniDekkas are VOR, however, which has resulted in single-decks being allocated to the 21. Similar story at Deptford, with branded B9TLs having to be used on scholars resulting in Streetlites being allocated to the 56.

6317, bizarrely, has been allocated to Metro Replacement today, with 6122 used on the 21... That really shouldn't have happened...
