I'm now being told that 7412-5 are now for the X20, and are to receive route branding imminently, with the launch wishing the next month.
3 further Volvo B7TL/Alexander ALX400s are for Ashington in Arriva spec, maybe for the half upgraded 35...?
I'm told there are no intentions to refurbish 7445/6 for any Ashington services.
All from another source........gods sake.
