I personally wouldn't be surprised to see some of the Merseyside buses end up at Redcar to see off the Temsa's, they sound like they're coming difficult to maintain. I know it's been announced on another forum that the Omnicity's at Derby are on borrowed time, no doubt for similar reasons.

Mind I wouldn't be surprised to see the last 3 or 4 59 Plate Solos (2859 has been VOR for months) at Ashington go, they really are the definition of falling apart and I believe the same poster your mentioning has said there's 'newer' replacements in the past. I'm still very curious where SLS26 - 30 in London are going as they tick all the boxes and there's not many areas with Streetlite's especially since Ashington already has some.



There's 10 Streetdeck's btw, they've been sitting around at the back of a depot in London for over a year because they hate them down there. Good to see they're actually using some, eventually. (SW1 - SW10 are their fleet numbers).

When is the fleet of Temsa Avenues going to be withdrawn? I was hoping to see them before they go. Last remaining interesting thing in the Arriva fleet which is all Pulsars and StreetLites, apart from the NL Connection Solos and the last remaining Solos which are likely due to be withdrawn.

Hopefully the 43/44/45/47 buses arrive soon. Electroliners? Might be next year for them coming.
