I was more confused at your post than the timetable situation, it made no sense. But it could be confusing for people, hopefully Citaro's will move on soon.

Only 2 Solo's have entered service so far, so the allocation is 2 Solo's and 2 Citaro's. 692 arrived yesterday, not sure when 691 will arrive.

It's not a 5 minute job though, it takes a long time, other services have yet to receive their stop announcements so it's not just the TEN services.

When I was waiting for the 22 at Park Lane at 12:30-ish, there were a handful of people specifically waiting for the X6 and a couple of others ran over for it, so word has got out. That's hardly peak time of day, either. 5333 was a beautiful shade of muck (much like Bigun, when he got home from outdoor ed, today!) RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2016 - GX03 - 07 Dec 2016 Often thought coaches would be the best option for the X9/X10, having read previous points on suitable coaches and the recent addition of the Scalia Caetano double deck coaches which do don't require a lift having seats downstairs, maybe leave a row of seats out and these could be the answer over streetdekka/ADL decker.

That's good, hopefully the numbers keep going up, the X6 is 18 minutes quicker to Hartlepool from Sunderland than the X5 so that might be attracting passengers.

You joking?! The deckers get packed! They tried coaches on the X9 originally.
