I'm hoping you'll be able to work out the bits in the middle!
The buses are subject to be swapped over and replaced with other buses during the day if there are delays to service - but those are the boards they should be allocated to from start of play. Without looking back, I'd assume some of the afternoon departures get the buses in Consett before the scholars peak, just in case anything goes horribly wrong. They'd be able to remove one of those Volvo B9TLs from service and replace it with a single-deck or minibus.
However; as Robert can vouch for, the appearance of Volvo B9TLs on St. Bede's scholars services are few and far between.
Not for further service: it will be used for route learning purposes at Peterlee, for the service changes taking place next month.
572 remains at Chester-le-Street, withdrawn, for now.
Becoming more and more common on night 6s though. Stanley seems to have some slack for using these to replace omnidekkas with nee heating. They become taxis and run light to Stanley bus station at night, always one kicking about, so are swapped if needs be. Seen one on every day, sundays included, more than once in the past 2 months.
Although I'm sceptical that these are recorded as being used, it's certainly becoming more common and will undoubtedly be even more common in these winter months!
