Streetdecks 6301-6303 are now at Consett. I wonder if this solves the 'what extra vehicles are needed for x lines routes at Consett' questions that have been asked in the past, given all routes at Consett are back up and running now?
Also E400 6337 appears to have transferred back to Hexham

I suspect it might be 7156.

It is true. As 7156 has not yet entered service, 7111 and 7128 have transferred to Riverside (but 7128 is VOR for MOT next week).

Until 7156 enters service, six interdecks and 7111, with 6377 and 7128 as spares.

When 7156 enters service, 7111 will still be retained as a spare, as 6377 is effectively removed as a spare come the summer holidays when the X11 runs daily.

6099 tracked on 5 and 50 yesterday, it appears that it replaced 5257 which failed whilst leaving South Shields on the 5.

I think the Scanias will still be needed, just likely to be elsewhere.

The six Lothian Volvo B9s on loan from Ensign have been allocated to Consett (displacing six of the fleet livery Volvo B7 to Riverside from Consett).

The Toon Link Scania OmniCitys have transferred to Riverside, being replaced at Percy Main by the two dual-door ex-London examples, the two single-decks on loan from Metrobus, and due to a PVR reduction (cancellation of the Arriva 46 and 51 services, which Arriva has taken back in-house from tomorrow).

Will the 6 Versa's be leaving Deptford, due to some/all of the Citaro's being back for the X20 or will they stay for additional duplicate services?

Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

Yes, they're all back at Chester-le-Street to be allocated to service 25 (displacing 6301-3 to Consett as noted above, which has been the temporary allocation on service 25 since the service reductions in mid-January).
