(09 Jan 2017, 4:02 pm)South Tyne Lad wrote The South Tyne Versa's ran around in unbranded Purple on the 88/88A in late 2013 following displacement from the Saltwell Park, 8295,8300 and 8301 ran in Saltwell Park Green around the same time too.
8299 had serious work done to it around that period, As I only recall it being on the 88/88A was a few months after the rest of the batch arrived, Also in debranded Green.
The discussion regards new vehicles, not cascaded vehicles from a new route.
