Then again, maybe the Toon Link will get new deckers?

I don't think the 9 will get branded, because then the Deptford ones would have to be branded too. Although it could happen - I liked the ''Cross Tyne'' branding on the SPDs.that livery was good til they put a South Tyne Vinals over the top of Cross Tyne logos

To be honest, apart from peak times I'm not sure the Toon Link justifies deckers.
anyhow on a different note wonder when todays fortnightly NEB News will be available and what surprises await me and the rest of us
