Although I've had no confirmation yet, I'd imagine the gas buses would just allow the oldest ALX300s at Sunderland to be withdrawn.

I have heard a rumour about some other buses coming to the North East from another region when they receive investment later this year too, but nothing concrete just yet... Just to be on the safe side (wouldn't like to think anyone referred to NEB as a 'fantasy island'), we'll keep those details quiet for now...
