Must admit I agree with mb123 that the Enviro's need replacing at Ashington tbf.
Mind whether the X14 and X20 need deckers is up for debate or would 1493 / 1501-5 plus the two that came from Jesmond be enough for them. The Pulsars do well in other areas on similar routes.
The X14 recently has been running with minibuses quite often lately with no real issues tbh and the X20 isn't particularly ever very busy either.
