They've spent 7 years been hammered on the X15/X18 (and previous incarnations) and aren't capable of doing these routes anymore and Enviro's are now used on the 14/X14 now and there is no point in sending them to Whitby as they will only be used for 4 months of the year which is during the summer when the PVR is higher. At the moment Belmont are mainly using them on the X12/X2 at the moment and Belmont is now benefitting from having newer double deckers as all other double deckers (apart from the VDL DB300 Gemini's) are now around 14 years old or older.
