Earlier, i was reading through the 'Tender Discussion Thread' and found this post:

Now, it is just a suggestion rather confirmation, giving who posted it but i think it is a good opportunity to replace the MPDs at Crook.
Basically, the SR released due to not being required on the 68 or whatever service it is along with the SR that would normally be allocated to the 516 (Euro 4 contract allows for an MPD to be allocated) are repainted wnd transferred to Crook for the 18.
On the flip side of the coin, I think it is more likely that the 516 will continue to be allocated a Nexus Optare Solo SR with the released vehicle being repainted and replacing 9105 on the ASDA Freebus.
So you are suggesting that for example 626 and 633 transfer to Crook and that one of their MPDs gets painted green for the ASDA bus and 9105 gets NEXUS vinyls and runs on service 516. Or at least that is my adaption of your post
