Do you think they haven't had their Cobalt Clipper branding applied as GNE will wait until the majority are refurbished ready for a service relaunch?

Also noticed while sitting upstairs on 6101 their has been vents installed right at the back below the rear seats which were making a right racket and that it was quite sluggish, then I noticed when on 6103 sitting downstairs it sounded a bit different, sounded like the system the micro-hybrid streetlites use where it recovers energy lost from braking to power the vehicle electrics and compressed air systems.
Have the Cobalt B9's been fitted with anything while they've been away making them more fuel efficient etc, was racking my brains earlier as I can remember their was some funding grant to reduce emissions before the new year which meant a certain amount vehicles which went through Newcastle City Centre would be fitted whatever system the operator had chosen to be fitted.
