(03 May 2015, 10:39 am)Dan wrote A number of movements are due to take place over the next few days as a result of the entry into service of these new vehicles. The first movements commenced last night and early this morning, and these are as follows:
  • Stanley-based Volvo B10BLE/Wright Renown 4904 (W904 RBB) has transferred to Deptford, allowing DAF SB120/Wright Cadet 8273 (NK54 NLD) to transfer to Riverside. The latter will transfer to Hexham shortly, as a replacement for DAF SB120/Wright Cadet 8244 (NA52 BUW) which will be withdrawn. 8242 (NA52 BUU) will also be withdrawn as a result of the entry into service of the Streetlites on service X66, though both will remain in use when required.

  • Chester-le-Street based "Northern" branded Volvo B10BLE/Wright Renown 4842 (R842 PRG) and "Lime" branded 4853 (R853 PRG), 4854 (R854 PRG) and 4855 (R855 PRG) have all been withdrawn.
I am guessing this could mean that with the Cadets being Withdrawn that possibly Volvo B7RLEs 4978-82 will be allocated to the 67/69 in the near future.
