Are Durhams ALX's and E200's getting scrapped do ya know? Surely, it would make sense just to throw them (ALX's) at Redcar's 62 which then gives Redcars Single Deckers some breathing space for a while and creates more capacity on the 62. Even them E200's, yeh they may struggle on hills but would suit the likes of the 62/63 services or even giving the E200's as Spares to Stockton for any broken down Streetlites and Pulsars on the 8/9 and 29 Services. Just a shame to see them go to scrap if they are when they could have their uses else where as more spares.

I’ll just answer the sensible bits…
Durham’s E200s… well 1330 is moving back to Yorkshire. Otherwise the rest are staying until replaced. Same for the B7s… they’ve bidded for some Zebra2 money to implement electric buses at Durham to replace them (& some at Redcar) - but I wouldn’t expect to see them in service before the end of next year!
