Rumors going around is that there are going to be versas heading to Peterlee, but how they'd get around the 209 I don't know, especially at Alder Road. Just to throw another spanner into the mix, there are now 7 spare drivers in the depot. Are they getting extra services, or increasing frequencies of something? Any ideas?
Edited my smelling mistook...
Could be drifter ones? I think pretty much confirmed that Washington are getting the Saltwell park ones. I think out of all the MPD's allocations Peterlee (and Percy main) is probably the two that would be more suitable for Versa's with solos been more ideal for Hexham & Consett. The numbers for the solos would fit Into them been for Venture or another possibility is that they are for TyneDale Links & the remaining Washington Street Shuttle (W5/W6).
