Same with the TTX and Red arrows B7.
If so is it only a matter of time before they are made red for spares, considering half of the time they are on another route with that brand.
I remember reading back that the 2 Angel spares, arent spares anymore and are part of the allocation and have been for sometime on the 21, surprising that when all these new B9's arrived, that within the 4 red spares, 2 of them could of went to the Angel, arriving in the base colour to replace the older b7's freeing them up to become red spares, and leaving 1 Red B9 each on Cobalt and then Fab56 if needed.
Pointless exercise maybe, but Im sad and would of probs done that haha.
3941/42 (TEN/Metro Radio) are both spare vehicles for the "TEN" network.
3943 (Red Arrows) is a spare vehicle for "Red Arrows" service X1, and has a tendency of being used on Saturdays on the X88 if not required by the X1.
3962/65 (Angel) were both originally spare vehicles for "Angel" service 21, but service changes designed to improve reliability saw the PVR increase by two.
