Also, the TEN would only receive an extra permanant B9 in the form of 6101 (not shared with the TTX unless an absolute emergency), nothing else unless GNE were willing to repaint an extra bus in the form of an Ex-Deptford B9 to allow 6101 to become a dedicated spare vehicle. Got to remember that the B9s purchased for the Cobalt Clipper were bought in a bulk of 34 vehicles and although this was cracking value for money at the time (I think), alot has changed since then and due to the emergence of lightweight vehicles unless GNE are willing to part ways with Wrightbus and migrate to ADL and Scania, then they will struggle for finding replacement vehicles for the likes of the Pronto.
more than likely DFDS Seaways are to receive new buses but you think that Gemini 2 are to be replaced on them routes there already on when there only young some they won't happen most enthusiasts will probs agree with me on this one well gemini 2 will not be replaced end of
