• SuperShuttles have arrived at Consett, as expected.
  • Their arrival has displaced 3 native StreetLite buses from Consett to Deptford.
    
• Several ex-First StreetLites that were previously at Deptford have now moved to Riverside, joining the four already based there.
  
• Vehicle 6161 has transferred from Consett to Deptford.
  

The Streetdecks moving across from the X1 appear to be allocated to the 47 & X5/X15 

The Red Kite B9's are all off the road as of now, not sure if they have remained at Consett or have been displaced until they track.

Versas 8321 & 8324 are still both tracking at Percy Main for now. 

6187 is still in service at Washington. 

6945, 6947, 6950. 6952 are all still out service despite being earmarked for withdrawal.

Then the X30's/X70's & 47 operated by E400MMC's and X45 with New Streetdecks.

Moved this from the other thread, not sure about the 16/16A personally.

I wouldn't be surprised it it's

E400MMC: X5/X15/X30's/X70's
E400 Classic: 16/16A/Schools
E200MMC: 78
Streetdeck: X45/47
Unsure: 6

Undecided whether all the Streetlite's will go, but there's enough Streetdeck's there to get rid of them all if they all come with the 6 becoming a mixed allocation with 3 Streetdeck's and the remaining 3 E200MMC's (when not needed for the 78).

Still 2 Red Kites floating about at Consett.
Seems 1 has made its way onto the 10's/.

And at least the X5/X15 have something decent

I wonder if Percy Main will lose 680/681 to allow 672/726/7/8 to stay with them being allocated to the 342/333 with the 356 getting the versas from Riverside

Yeah full size Versa would be good for the 356. Solos are too small.

The Red Kite B9 (6046) I would think is a loan to Hexham as they did have a Green X-Lines E400MMC (6349) earlier in the week.

It's just a continuous downward spiral.

Do you know how many more buses are still to be withdrawn?

Mental how much the total fleet has dropped over the years.

More streetlites at Deptford. Great!!!!! Just what we need ;(
