With the X21 going back to half hourly and some working around, GoNE can fulfill the planned X-Lines upgrades at a push.
Still doesn't make sense that GoNE went with SteetDecks unless the low quantity of E400MMCs served as a 'trial' to see if they'd fit into GoNE's fleet. I reckon going forward that GoNE will stick with ADL.
Martijn said in his colleague update video that nine had been "surrendered" to the Go-Ahead Group, where they will be re-deployed within another operating company. Oxford Bus Company has taken one, body number AS483 and registered NK20EKT, on loan to evaluate. There are five others currently fully built and in England.
