I think that could be a likely scenario, as I don't think South Shields will be able to fit 19 extra buses in the depot at once. So for example, I guess six will arrive and enter service displacing 35190-95 to Hartlepool, and the others could gradually be phased in displacing a few MAN E200s at a time to Slatyford.
