Sounds good to me.
As I've mentioned in the past, I do think the TynedaleXpress would benefit from an upgrade.
However newer buses would be better, but as Pulsar has said the interior upgrade would still be an improvement for the service.
However would they upgrade TynedaleXpress to Citaros but leave the 680 Tynedale Links service with a Solar? That would mean only one at Hexham unless they still keep a Solar for the spare?
