I can't imagine anything dramatically changing other than the 97 being allocated B9TLs and the Red Kite B9TLs making their way onto service 47 along with any red deckers if necessary - i would imagine they want to put as many double deckers on the road as possible. I would say that the X31 is likely to be Omnidekkas too like the X30.
They're not giving the X30/1 a 20 minute break in newcastle, somebody who's on these explains it's like an early sunday, but there's also a 30 min 6 frequency to provide the same to X31. The bus goes in 6, comes out X30 or X31. X30 or X31 goes in, comes out as 6.

Also the 47 is a 30 min frequency on a run that takes over two hours, so the 4 B9s alone cannot cover it. Stanley like keeping these offroad as much as possible because they're nice and want the milage down. Wouldn't be surprised if these stayed at home all day, they're never on late boards apart from one on a sunday that finishes on a Stanley taxi board at 2030.
This is still subject to change until today, I believe that's when duties are being assigned properly.
