If anything, I think we'll just see Wi-Fi retrofitted to the examples which haven't yet had this work done already. It won't be too long before these buses are on "lesser" routes - they probably wouldn't justify the significant investment to undergo a full refurbishment.

(05 Nov 2017, 5:17 pm)Dan wrote But there is a 'major age gap' between them and the 10-plate Mercedes Citaros which have since been refurbished.
I think it is more likely that the Optare Versas new between 2009 and 2011 will be refurbished in the next financial year.

The transfer of 5201 and 5202 to Riverside has no bearing on the withdrawal of any further elderly Volvo B10BLE or Scania L94 from Riverside.

No, unfortunately not. That's why there's nothing on Go North East's website about this service.

I think a corp brand could have worked but no point.
Wouldn't put it past streetlites. Wouldn't put it past the salty park streetlites being cascaded off as they've stayed as long as the versas beforehand.
