Go North East: 2016/17 Financial Year Order Predictions

Go North East: 2016/17 Financial Year Order Predictions

RE: Go North East: 2016/17 Financial Year Order Predictions
I changed my order predication so here are my predictions for orders:  (think the numbers are right, don't quote post as i'll edit it if wrong)

Riverside:

Blaydon Racers: 10 + 1 Streetlites

Cascades:

Blaydon Racers (10) – Loop – only reason is because Dan mentioned the other day that they were “Environmentally friendly with better fuel consumption... Got absolutely no power at all compared to younger examples” – this is just speculation though.
The Loop route also takes around the same time as the Blaydon Racers – this also means nothing too, just thought I would mention that.

11 Scania’s from the Loop replace the remaining B10’s and older Scania’s in the fleet.



Stanley:

9 + 1 spares Streetlites for Durham Diamond

Cascades:
10 + 1 spares Citaro to Riverside for the Green Arrow
11 Scania’s replace 11 older Scania’s in the fleet.


Deptford:

15 Streetlites for the 35/35A/36
15 Citaro remain at Deptford for the X5, 9 (to allow a full allocation) and the 61.
9 Scania’s replace 9 older Scania’s in the fleet
5 Versa from the 61 move to spare roles throughout the fleet, once again removing older Scania’s from the fleet.

Percy Main:

17+ 2? Streetdecks for the Cobalt Clipper (I’m sure one unbranded B9 is currently allocated?)

Cascades:

All 19 to head to Stanley replacing all 19 Omnidekka’s

Omnidekkas replace:
10 to Percy Main to replace 3890/ 3891, 6008, 6010, 6015, 6023, 6025, 6031, 6033
9 to Chester to replace 6017- 6020, 6022, 6026, 6030, 6036, 6038, 6039
