I don't know whether there's any of the Angel electrics in the North East yet, but there's currently 2 on the way right now. Just passed them on the A1(M) near Catterick.
Appear to be on their own fuel aswell, if anyone is around and wanting photos. Assume they'll be at Riverside at roughly 2pm'ish.

Two arrived yesterday - 6804 and 6811. They are indeed travelling up under their own power - the pair yesterday visited First's Leeds Bramley depot for a top-up charge on their way north, no doubt the same has happened today.

So GNE’s electric Streetdecks have wing mirrors but the diesels have camera mirrors:

Good to see priority seats marked too on the lower saloon (contrasting headrests visible).

The wing mirrors are temporary apparently, camera mirrors to be fitted later.

Oh not the god awful blue interior, I thought we left that after the introduction of XLines.
RE: Electric Buses/new orders
Has it been stated what depots and routes the diesel streetdecks are being allocated to yet.
RE: Electric Buses/new orders
My guess is 13 for washington for the X1 (12+ 1 spare), then 12 for riverside for the X10 and X21, with 6377 as the spare.
RE: Electric Buses/new orders
Anyone have any idea when they will go to their relevant depots
