Presumably, out of the three vehicles trialled for the X21, the Streetdeck must have ticked all of the boxes in the eyes of Go North East (although many people seem to view the Enviro400MMC as the more suitable choice, although I suspect a general prejudice towards Wrights products has helped to form that opinion, as I certainly couldn't see anything wrong with 9119's performance last Saturday on the X21, and that is after seeing use on various other services during it's long trial). Didn't personally think the Volvo B5TL was up for the job.
