Be daft to have 7 buses with plugs etc and the rest with none.

Lets just pray to god that GNE have not ordered StreetDecks or B5TLs for the X1.

I agree with your main point though. If you are going to buy new buses, you might aswell replace the whole lot rather than 7.

Only thing I can think off if they do 7 to Crook and 7 as spares (inc PVR shortfalls on the Angel), is that if the latter batch go to Crook, then 1 could well be an 11 plate vehicle owing to 6049 having a Tachograph which of course, Riverside desperately need more off. Or alternatively, Riverside still have to take a bus of the 10/10B if 6043 to 6048 fail but only lacking plug sockets. They could well even swap the Tacho system out of 6049 and fit it on one of the 11 plate batch.
Can't say for definite yet. Will need to wait for the other 7 or even 14 to get done first but regardless, we will not know until the very last minute because if Arriva find out, then that'll either mean revisions for the X12 or even worse, some good E400s from either the North East or any other Arriva division which could well be fitted with plug sockets.
Even if all of them get repainted red, i still think they'll remain at Washington, on the Red Arrow... i think the brand will be re-designed to fit in with the advert boards.
Would be good if GNE used those adverts boards to advertise the brand - such as route savers etc instead of stuff like insurance etc.

(20 Nov 2015, 7:36 am)S813 FVK Did he? I interpreted it has 6049-6055 staying where they are with 6001-6007 being replaced by new vehicles.

Is 6020 staying at Chester-le-Street or is it still just a loan, it's just left Durham on the X22.
If anyone is looking for 6001, it has just left Eldon Square (at 11:10) on service 921.
