X40 will be replaced by Q3 in July, rumoured atm to run every 20 mins but interworking with the Q2 which will be reduced to every 20 mins. (Not confirmed but rumoured)
I'm expecting streetlites on the Lime... looking forward to seen what they get.
X66 will get new buses.
As for the rest no idea.
As for deliverys... Citaro comfirmed that these would arrive between March and May.

When they roll out in (hopefully March!), I'll be getting a Lime Daysaver and going silly with it!

(22 Jan 2015, 10:11 pm)Tom wrote How do you know there will be Streetlites going on the Lime?
Saying ''I am looking forward to seeing Streetlites on the Lime'' and ''When they roll out'', certainly suggests your sure it will be getting Streetlites.
(22 Jan 2015, 10:11 pm)Michael wrote Even though the lime is a long route, its one of my fav's, i dont know why.
Remember its not confirmed for streetlites, its just whay i think!![]()
(22 Jan 2015, 10:12 pm)MarcTheA4 wrote I know, I know.
I'm just trying to say I think Streetlites will be the best option, and I hope they're what is ordered.
Perhaps Mr.5284 can shed some light...?

It is a demonstration vehicle which will be with Go North East soon, and has been allocated fleet number 9119. It has been built to standard Go-Ahead specification.

(24 Jan 2015, 10:44 am)DaveyBowyer wrote I'd still say that the E400 MMC will be on the cards for GNE for replacing existing deckers and introducing deckers on other services:
ADL / Cummins = Cobalt Clipper, Crusader, Angel, Prince Bishops, Toon Link
ADL / Scania = TEN, TTX, Red Arrows, Fab 56, Pronto
