If the 7 or 8/1 rule was followed for the TEN and Angel order, then I wouldn't have given a thought about them.
My money is on the 11 being axed and merged into the TEN brand with a 7-8 minute service (15 evenings and Sundays) between Crawcrook and Newcastle. All Hexham journeys double deck and operated by Hexham, most Prudhoe journeys double deck and most Rockwood Hill, Blackhall Mill journeys using Streetlites.
- 6 + 1 spare StreetDecks for Hexham
- 5 SteeetDecks for Riverside + 1 tachographed
spare
- 14x B9s from Riverside to Stanley
- 8 + 1 spare Streetlites from Stanley to Riverside
See my order sheet plus sample running times that I posted on the main forum for further info. Also includes extra Streetlite for CLS as well as Deptford as well as other spare vehicle arrangements.
I doubt it
