And the OmniCitys aren't reliable either... one was taken off the X14 recently with the suspension sky high, it's not worth the risk sending them further north than Alnwick on a Sunday, where resources are at a minimum.
I'm sure it would be if the Streetlites weren't, pretty much, to the same specification to the Omnicities.
