WIFI, USB ports, same seats as the Enviro 400's on the 39/40, stop announcements (when traveling between the non stop area's, adverts will flash, about tickets, upcoming changes)

Are the hybrids keeping the green interior, with blue seats? I love the new 39/40 interior, although it doesn't look very Stagecoach. I wonder if the new buses will be on the other Walkergate services.
order suggestion to allow a greener higher coppacity service in Newcastle

Intended depot:Walkergate/Slatyford

Livery to be worn: SC local (Walkergate batch) SC express (slatyfird batch)
Service changes to accommodate these viechles: All journeys on the 12 will be extended to Wallsend due to the terminus at walker bring to tight for an XLB to get around All journeys terminating at walker will be extended to Wallsend the Slatyford batch will displace the SP08 reg E300s elsewhere on the UK
